The Trauma Therapist Trauma Therapist Project

Zina Ortiz is a childhood trauma survivor. Her experiences of chronic neglect, physical, mental, and sexual abuse have provided her with a unique opportunity to embark on a personal journey of healing. Through this transformative process, she has gained a profound understanding of the complexities and far-reaching impacts of trauma, as well as the incredible power of healing.

Zina founded the Elephant in The Room group psychotherapy practice where she specializes in the treatment of Complex Trauma, Anxiety and Depression.

Without shaming, blaming, magnifying, or minimizing the main challenge Zina’s goals as a psychotherapist are based on the belief that people want to be happy, effective and successful in their lives and they have within themselves the resources to achieve these goals.

Rob Morris is the co-founder and CEO of Koko, whose mission is to combat the youth mental health crisis by meeting young people where they’re at—online.
Rob's journey with Koko began during his graduate studies at MIT, a period marked by personal struggles with mental health. It was out of this challenging experience that the seeds of Koko were planted.

Hailing from the heart of Silicon Valley, Rob's early interests diverged from technology towards a fascination with humanity. This led Rob to delve into psychology during Rob's time at Princeton, a passion that endured even as Rob later developed an interest in computers, design, and technology. Pursuing graduate studies at MIT was a transformative experience, supported by dedicated advisors and inspiring peers who propelled Rob forward despite the challenges. To them, and to all who believed in Rob, Rob is eternally grateful.
