Most people have experienced a form of trauma at one point in their life. Trauma can stem from a variety of events and circumstances at any age. These events may include abandonment, bullying, experiencing or witnessing acts of violence, a health diagnosis, and emotional, physical or sexual abuse. Symptoms may include anxiety, depression, destructive behaviors, sleep disturbances, and withdrawal. Psychotherapy has been shown to be an effective treatment for trauma. As a certified clinical trauma therapist, I will work with you to help you understand how the trauma has impacted your life, as well as the effect on your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. In therapy you will feel heard and protected as you process your emotions and memories. The goal of trauma focused therapy is to show you that you have control of your life, not your past experience. You are more than your trauma and your narrative can change.

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Sometimes life is rough, sometimes you are the one who saw it, experienced it, or went through it. Most of these experiences we can think about, understand, and move on. But sometimes....there is that one ...(or more) which we can't just put down. It creeps into our dreams, it pushes into our heads when we drive by that spot, or look at that person who reminds us... It starts to take over our peace and impact our work, school, or relationships. When you have been through something hard that you cannot just let go and when you go home and others don't get it. It is time to reach out to someone who can help. It is possible to get this experience unstuck from your head, it is possible to turn things around. You can do things that you want to do rather than accepting that you are going to be damaged and struggle with certain things. You can let go of the anger, sleeplessness, and hypervigilance and connect with your family again and be happy. I offer four types of research-based therapies for trauma and PTSD: Prolonged Exposure (PE), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Eye Movement and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Trauma Focused: Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF: CBT)

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Acknowledging an event as traumatic is scary, and it can be easy to minimize our past experiences particularly when we feel "fine". Yet one may experience a variety of mental health symptoms and/or patterns which may feel uncomfortable or interfere with various life areas. These patterns likely helped you survive the traumatic experience, yet continued despite no longer being needed. I have over 15 years experience in treating symptoms of trauma and PTSD in children, adolescents, and adults. I utilize an integrated approach, incorporating psychoeducation, parts work (IFS), EMDR therapy, mindfulness and CBT to support clients of all ages with processing the traumatic experience and integrating adaptive information and new, more effective patterns.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I see trauma in a broad sense- any experience that was too overwhelming to process in the moment and is stored in the body/mind. Gently, we can integrate and find freedom from these experiences.
