Dr. Sarah Pouliot
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Trauma did not wait for consent; Therapy must. While many different therapeutic modalities exist for the treatment of trauma and PTSD, what remains essential is the thoughtful and careful negotiation of pacing between therapist and client such that the therapeutic process feels as manageable and tolerable as possible. Given that trauma so often results from harmful relational dynamics that force agendas or remove personal agency, trauma therapy must offer a healing space that does not seek to rush, pressure, or impinge. Rather, and in my professional opinion, it's imperative that trauma therapy respect the client's experience of what feels manageable at any given moment in therapeutic time and space, working to avoid unnecessary setback and potential retraumatization. I feel this is best achieved through the development of a reliable therapeutic rapport and relationship that functions to carefully and mindfully co-monitor and co-negotiate the everchanging and expanding dynamics between therapist and client. Put another way, your therapy should not be forced into someone else's timeframe or methodology; it should be allowed to develop in step with your specific history, unique needs, and comfort level. Please refer to my Trauma Blog on my website (pouliotpsychologicalservices.com) for more information on my approach to the treatment of trauma.

William Munze
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CPC, NCC
Trauma can profoundly impact our lives, affecting our emotional, mental, and physical well-being. It can lead to symptoms such as anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, and hypervigilance. Trauma often disrupts relationships, self-esteem, and one's ability to function in daily life. Additionally, it can manifest physically, causing chronic pain, fatigue, and other health issues.
Psychotherapy for trauma often involves techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is particularly effective for processing traumatic memories very quickly. This method can reduce the emotional impact of traumatic events and alleviate symptoms of PTSD. Through psychotherapy, my clients can also develop healthier coping mechanisms and improve their overall mental health. This comprehensive approach aims to foster healing and resilience in those affected by trauma.

Haley Carroll
Psychologist, MS, PhD
Healing from trauma and PTSD is a journey that requires a compassionate and evidence-based approach. My specialty lies in utilizing behavioral and cognitive-behavioral (CBT) therapies, including Prolonged Exposure and Cognitive Processing Therapy, to help you process and overcome traumatic experiences. These therapies focus on confronting and reprocessing traumatic memories in a safe and supportive environment, reducing the power they hold over your daily life. By addressing both the emotional and cognitive aspects of trauma, we aim to alleviate symptoms, foster resilience, and empower you to reclaim a sense of safety and control.
