Joy Rabon
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LMFT, CCTP, CIMHP
I have a special interest in working with trauma and am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have found that a significant percentage of clients seeking counseling have experienced some form of trauma. Trauma is often misunderstood, and ongoing research is expanding our understanding of its effects. I stay current with research on trauma, including childhood trauma, adverse childhood experiences, and chronic complex trauma, to better support clients seeking help.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Trauma and PTSD, especially C-PTSD, includes any emotional experience that was upsetting and different than you had experienced up to that point in your life. C-PTSD often involves parental neglect, unavailability, or inconsistency. I am not one of the therapists who will tell you that you need to forgive and rebuild your relationsihp with anyone you choose not to have in your life. The idea that people should continue to endure mistreatment simply because someone is family is absurd. Of course, trauma and PTSD can include experiencing or witnessing any type of violence, abuse, accidents, or the threats of violence or abuse. Trauma has been my specialty since the beginning of my career and I have taken extensive training on the treatment of trauma. More importantly than if I am qualified to treat you for upsetting or traumatic past experiences is the fact that I will never minimize your experiences. Please do not avoid going to therapy because you think what you experienced was "not that bad." If it was upsetting to you when it happened and it still affects your life in any way I want to help you reduce or eliminate the impact of those experiences on your present day and future life.

Ilana Lane
Psychologist, Ph.D., therapy for anxious overachievers
Traumatic events can take a significant toll on us, both immediately after the event, and often even long after it has occurred. I have significant experience working with clients who have been impacted by trauma and am trained in a number of highly effective "gold standard" treatments to help you get "unstuck" from the traumatic experience and move forward with your life. Using only proven strategies, we will work on identifying and addressing challenging thoughts, behaviors, body sensations, and emotions related to your trauma, and collaborate to help you get unstuck and living a life that's more aligned with what matters most to you.

New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Treating trauma and PTSD requires a comprehensive and compassionate approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment. Drawing from evidence-based therapies such as cognitive processing therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic experiencing, I work with clients to process and integrate traumatic memories in a supportive therapeutic environment. Through psychoeducation, skill-building, and experiential techniques, I help clients regain a sense of control over their lives while addressing symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, and avoidance. My specialized expertise enables me to tailor treatment to each individual's unique needs, fostering healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope for the future.
