Tamar Hidegh is a trauma-focused clinician with a deep commitment to supporting those who serve and protect. She began her career working in the field of addiction, where she quickly recognized that substance use was often a symptom of unresolved trauma. This insight led her to specialize in trauma therapy, where she now works extensively with military veterans, police officers, paramedics, firefighters, and other frontline professionals.
Tamar’s current clinical focus includes post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), complex PTSD (C-PTSD), and moral injury, with a particular emphasis on the unique ways trauma impacts uniformed service members. She understands that experiences such as chronic exposure to threat, operational stress, and ethical conflicts can deeply affect identity, relationships, and nervous system regulation.
Tamar believes that effective trauma treatment must address both the cognitive and physiological imprints of trauma—combining insight-based work with body-centered interventions to support lasting healing.
Her integrative approach blends evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), somatic interventions, and psychedelic-assisted therapy. Tamar creates a therapeutic environment that is safe, grounded, and responsive to the culture and needs of first responders. Her communication style is straightforward and respectful, which first responders find accessible and validating.
At the heart of Tamar’s work is a belief that trauma does not define a person—it is something that happened, not who they are. She is passionate about helping clients reduce emotional suffering, restore agency, and move toward greater connection, purpose, and post-traumatic growth.
