Trauma and PTSD
Dr. JD Wright
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
When working with trauma I pull from EMDR, somatic approaches, and parts work. A primary goal of the work is to reduce shame and self-judgments, and for you to feel like you can understand and provide compassion to yourself. Through those processes, trauma can be transformed and your experience of yourself and those around you naturally reshaped.

Trauma and PTSD
New Frontiers Counseling LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, MA, EdS
Trauma impacts a person's sense of safety and belonging. It fuels depression, anxiety, and a learned sense of helplessness. By voicing what you have been afraid to voice and getting in touch with your deepest survival instinct you can overcome the sense of helplessness that characterizes trauma. Your choice to reach out for help is the first major step in breaking the pattern of isolation and silence that accompanies trauma.

Trauma and PTSD
Amy K. Cummings-Aponte, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Florida LMHC MH20515, Maine LPC CC6872, North Carolina LCMHC 20351
Trauma can develop from a one-time incident or a lifetime of ongoing experiences (throughout childhood). Those who have been exposed to a traumatic event or series of events may experience intrusive thoughts/memories, nightmares or disturbing dreams, becoming irritable or angry when startled or challenged, shutting down, memory issues or they may find themselves avoiding reminders of the event. Survivors of such trauma may describe it as feeling unmotivated or an inability to feel pleasure in anything, even those things they previously enjoyed. Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy is designed to help those individuals move from that triggered state into a state of peace, and it gives their brain the opportunity to process the experience in a productive manner.

Trauma and PTSD
Dr. Sven Schild
Psychologist, PhD, SEP, TCC
My approach to working with trauma and PTSD involves integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing (SE). ACT helps clients accept their traumatic experiences and related emotions without judgment, fostering psychological flexibility and resilience. EMDR is used to process and resolve traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact and allowing clients to reframe their experiences in a healthier way. SE addresses the physiological effects of trauma, helping clients release stored tension and restore a sense of balance and safety in their bodies. This holistic approach supports clients in healing from trauma, reducing PTSD symptoms, and enhancing their overall well-being.
