Dr. Lauren Jensen
Psychologist, Psy.D., PMH-C, EMDR Certified
Trauma can be defined in many ways, but the definition I continue to return to is that it's an experience of overwhelm that the mind and body are not adequately prepared for. It's often not the event(s) that are traumatic but the unique ways in which we as individuals experience, interpret, and make meaning of such events. EMDR is a therapeutic treatment that helps people get "unstuck" from their trauma and find ways to get relief from trauma symptoms such as intrusive thoughts, flashbacks and nightmares, hypervigilance, mood disturbances, and alterations in self-concept.

Dr. Mona E Stribling
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Most of us will experience trauma at some point in our lives, whether from an accident, a disaster, an assault, abuse, war, or the loss or death of a loved one.
While many people recover from trauma over time with the support of family and friends, many others have lasting effects and feel deep emotional pain, fear, and confusion long after the event happened.
Post-traumatic stress can be extremely debilitating, as you continue to relive the experience. It can also leave you feeling very isolated, as very well-meaning people don’t understand what you have been and continue to go through. But it is important that you know you are definitely not alone and that there is help.
A number of evidence-supported therapies have shown to significantly improve post-traumatic stress and the quality of life. Beyond healing, many people find a strength and sense of meaning and purpose that they may otherwise not have discovered. I have specialized training and extensive experience in treating trauma/PTSD, and I’m confident that together we will help you heal, and with hard work even grow and thrive beyond your trauma.

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.

Greta Cowles Consulting
Life Coach, LMFT, SEP, PIT, Trauma Stress Studies
Trauma and PTSD are symptoms experiences due to an event or a series of events. Somatic therapy will guide and support the process of discharging the trauma from the body so that it doesn't affect one's present behavior any longer. It is not a life sentence.
