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.

When the past does not want to stay in the past and it feels like the same crap that happened to you in your childhood are still going on today. You may want the pain to end and try to pretend like it did not happen. You could be throwing yourself into family, work or relationships, trying to keep yourself busy so you do not have to think about it. This can cause anxiety and pressure that exhausts you till you crash or sink into depression. Between your life and mind, you may not even know how to calm down or think you don’t deserve it. Over time you may feel like you’re running on a hamster wheel and although around people and family, feel all alone. Your body is a stranger and your mind is the enemy.
Most therapies try to change how you think so that you won’t feel so anxious or depressed anymore. When I was learning these techniques, it didn’t seem to fit for me because I believe it, so how are they going to change it. It really seems like “fake it till you make it.” As a client in treatment, it made me feel like I was invalidated. For example, I don’t feel safe because of what happened to me and you’re telling me that I should feel safe and I should tell myself that I feel safe even though I’m not. That was not going to work for me and probably not you either.
EMDR is a different kind of therapy where the experiences that you have had take the spotlight. The things that we’ve been through create how we see everything else. I feel unsafe because I’ve been through things that hurt me. So we look at those times that you have been hurt and use the whole body to digest these memories so that they feel like they’re no longer happening right now
