Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC
I address trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) with a compassionate and faith-centered approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healing and restoration. Recognizing the profound impact of trauma on the mind, emotions, and spirit, I create a safe and supportive environment that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on God's healing power. Drawing upon biblical teachings of comfort, resilience, and restoration, the counselor collaborates with individuals to navigate the effects of trauma and develop coping strategies. Encouraging a reliance on God's strength and the transformative power of faith, the counselor assists individuals in processing and overcoming traumatic experiences while fostering a sense of safety and trust in their Christian beliefs. This integrated approach aims to support individuals in their journey toward emotional healing, resilience, and spiritual renewal within the context of Christian values.

Nathan Duff
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC, LCMHC, CCTP, C-DBT, CYMHS
I’ve been working with trauma, particularly sexual trauma, since the 1990s. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), my approach is slow and careful. While some people are comfortable jumping right into these stories, for most people it's very difficult to even begin the discussion. I understand how difficult it can be to even begin discussing trauma, so I always start by negotiating *how* we talk about it in a way that feels safe. My work has included everything from sexual trauma, to combat, to EMS, and many complex trauma cases. Possibly because I'm male I've seen an unusual number of survivors of female sexual perpetrators, a group that face some unusual challenges that aren't often discussed.
For more on my approach to trauma work, you can read articles on my website.

Be Heard Live Well
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop in individuals who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event. Trauma, broadly defined as a deeply distressing or disturbing experience, can have lasting effects on one's emotional and psychological well-being. Common sources of trauma leading to PTSD include but are not limited to, combat exposure, sexual assault, accidents, or natural disasters. Symptoms of PTSD often manifest as intrusive memories, nightmares, heightened arousal, avoidance of reminders, and negative changes in mood and cognition. Trauma affects individuals differently, and while some may recover naturally over time, others may need therapeutic intervention. Effective treatments for PTSD include various forms of psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), as well as medications that target specific symptoms. Recognizing and addressing trauma is crucial for promoting healing and restoring a sense of safety and well-being.

Melanie Mosbarger
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CTTS
I am a certified Trauma Treatment Specialist, as a result I have extensive training on the subject, but the best experience comes from the individuals I have served. I have had the privilege to come alongside many people dealing with traumas from their childhood of abuse, neglect, abandonment, traumas from sexual abuse and domestic violence which in some cases have resulted in complex PTSD. Through EMDR and holistic approaches I can help you to process through what your traumas are at your pace. I don't rush into this process, I allow you to take the lead, after you have skills and tools we can begin to unpack these core issues.

Bambara Psychotherapy, LCSW, PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Not everyone who suffers from a traumatic experience develops PTSD symptoms. It is not uncommon for two people to experience the exact same traumatic event and have drastically different behavioral responses. Whether you have a PTSD diagnosis, think you are experiencing symptoms of PTSD, or want to better understand your responses to a traumatic event, psychotherapy can offer a safe, comforting environment to unpack the layers one step at a time.

Heather Clifft
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Trauma is an emotional response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event that overwhelms one's ability to cope, causes feeling of helplessness, and diminishes one's sens of self and the ability to feel a full range of emotions and experiences. The effects of trauma are deeply personal and overwhelming. As a therapist, it is a privilege to hold space for your story and pain. I am certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy and will partner with you to carve a path to recovery that is focused on your individual and unique needs.

Gabrielle Crowe
Pre-Licensed Professional, NCC, Resident in Counseling
If you've experienced something that you struggle to even talk about, or you feel that most people wouldn't understand you, then you probably experienced a trauma. It's so important that you feel safe and free of judgment if you want to work on overcoming this experience. This is my goal for everyone who works with me. Trauma leaves us stuck with a moment in time, or repeated events, that keep playing in our heads over and over. It' like it binds us to the past. The good news is that therapy is very effective at helping us move on from our traumatic experiences, taking us out of the past, and bringing us to experience a more peaceful present. I'd be honored to walk this path with you. It is worth it!

Mindy Ash Hypnosis Centers in Las Vegas and Hypnosis in Henderson Nevada
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapy Instructor, Hypnotherapist, NLP Practitioner, EQ Coach, Master Business Coach, Author
Trauma and PSTD is caused by an initial sensitizing event. When an event upsets us, scares us or shocked us, that impression is linked up in your subconscious mind and so whenever you are in a similar situation you run the old pattern you learn from that initial sensitizing event. With hypnosis and Neuro Linguistic Programming we retrain your brain so that we lessen the impact of the previous event so that you have no emotional charge to the event anymore. And this shifts your perspective so that you can be free from those old emotions.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
As a psychologist working with trauma, I utilize evidence-based treatments to help clients process and heal from their experiences. I often use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to assist clients in addressing and reframing the negative thought patterns and emotional responses associated with their trauma. This approach helps them develop coping strategies and gradually face and work through their traumatic memories. Additionally, I incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to facilitate the processing of distressing memories and reduce their emotional charge. My approach is empathetic and client-centered, ensuring that each individual feels supported and empowered throughout their recovery journey. By applying these evidence-based treatments, I aim to help clients regain a sense of safety and control, ultimately guiding them towards healing and resilience.
