Trauma and PTSD
Rick Rodgers
Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW, CADC, CCTP, RYT 500
Trauma can leave us feeling trapped in a perpetual state of "fight, flight, or freeze," our bodies and minds reacting to unseen threats, our emotions a swirling vortex of fear, anxiety, and overwhelm. The past intrudes on the present, not as a memory, but as a visceral reaction, a surge of adrenaline, a tightening in the chest, a knot in the stomach. It can feel like you're forever on guard, unable to fully relax, unable to truly inhabit your own body.
But healing is possible. I can help you soothe your nervous system, reprocess traumatic memories, and reclaim a sense of safety and agency in your own life. Through trauma-informed therapy and somatic practices, we'll gently address the lingering effects of trauma, helping you to regulate your emotions, cultivate resilience, and rediscover your innate capacity for joy and connection. You are not defined by your trauma. You are a warrior, and I'm here to help you find your way back to wholeness.

Trauma and PTSD
Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
The purpose of therapy for trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is to assist individuals in recovering from the emotional and psychological effects of traumatic experiences. Various events, including accidents, abuse, violence, natural disasters, and witnessing traumatic events, can cause trauma. PTSD is a trauma-related disorder characterized by intrusive and distressing memories, avoidance of trauma-related stimuli, negative mood and cognitive changes, and heightened arousal.
The selected therapeutic approach for trauma and PTSD may vary depending on the individual's specific requirements, the nature of the trauma, and their treatment objectives. Numerous clinicians may combine therapeutic approaches to develop a comprehensive, individualized treatment plan.
It is essential to recognize that trauma therapy can be emotionally taxing, as individuals may be required to confront distressing memories and emotions. Consequently, working with a qualified and experienced trauma therapist who can provide a secure and supportive environment throughout the recovery process is crucial.
Suppose you or someone you know is experiencing trauma or PTSD symptoms. In that case, it is strongly recommended that you seek assistance from a mental health professional trained in trauma therapy to begin the healing and recovery process.
