Trauma and PTSD
Brie Chandler
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I help clients work through complex trauma and PTSD resulting from childhood abuse and neglect. This may have looked like experiencing bullying, having strict parents, trying to meet impossible expectations, hitting, shaming, fighting, lack of emotional connection, or something else. These experiences leave us trapped in cycles from the past that can feel hard to escape.

Trauma and PTSD
Kayla Jarred
Psychologist, PsyD
Whether your experience of trauma is recent (acute) or long term (chronic), it is never to later to work your way through the impact that traumatic event had your life. Work to understand your reactions/responses to situations and then discover ways to overcome the negative impact the trauma had on your thinking, emotional responses, and other overwhelming experiences. Either through a structured program, or just through discussion, self-exploration, and skill building, pick your path and stride forward.

Trauma and PTSD
Michaela Decker
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Frequently, people who have experienced trauma develop extraordinary survival skills. Often the strategies that were critical for survival, are not sustainable long term and thwart the ability to develop satisfying work, family and/or romantic relationships. Therapy provides an opportunity to become "unstuck" and transcend thinking and behavior patterns that are holding you back from realizing your potential. I specialize in the treatment of PTSD, anxiety and depression, and am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). When distress from a disturbing event remains, the upsetting images, thoughts, and emotions may create an overwhelming feeling of being back in that moment. EMDR therapy helps the brain process these memories, and allows normal healing to resume. EMDR therapy is not complete until attention has been brought to the past memories that are contributing to the problem, the present situations that are disturbing, and what skills the needed for the future.

Trauma and PTSD
Caitlin Derouen
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, EMDRT
I specialize in treating trauma and PTSD utilizing safe, integrative and trauma informed approaches. I am trained in EMDR, a highly effective method for treating complex and deeply rooted trauma to alleviate symptoms and remove the impact of triggers that may be affecting your daily life. EMDR seeks to use our brain's natural healing ability to alter the unhealthy internal narratives that became a part of our story when the trauma occurred. For this reason, EMDR is my preferred method for addressing trauma of almost any kind. I am also certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a technique that allows me to quickly provide patients with some relief from their symptoms through guiding them through their internal process in a creative way to encourage desensitization to triggers and alleviation of difficult symptoms.

Trauma and PTSD
Growth Counseling - Peter Tumolo
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
As Bessel Van Der Kolk says "The Body Keeps the Score". This statement refers to the now scientifically proven notion that trauma is not just the "bad things" that happen to us, but what happens in our bodies as well. Trauma is the lump in our throats, the heaviness in our chests, the anxiety in our stomachs, and tension in our muscles. In order to help heal from trauma and PTSD, we need to connect to our bodies and bring the body into the therapeutic experience. I am certified in EMDR which is proven to help process and heal past trauma of all kinds, including "shock trauma" (war, natural disasters, car accidents) and "relational/developmental trauma" (emotional abuse, neglect, sexual abuse).
