EMDR
Jennifer Pinkerton
Therapist, M.S., LMFT, CTP, C-PD
If you have unresolved trauma it can prevent you from having connections with others and inhibit your ability to function optimally in relationships. Trauma responses can force you into adaptive functions that leave you feeling stuck. In therapy, the emotional healing work can be done on your inner child to create new narratives and establish positive self-regard. Often people are driven by unprocessed emotions that keep you in a reactive cycle when you are merely seeking secure and loving connections. We can work together to resolve the pain you are feeling and address what you want and need out of your life, your relationships, and yourself. It is never too late to develop resiliency and transform your life. I provide a non-judgmental space to share with safety and compassion and consider it I privilege to understand your experience.

Stacy Costopoulos Smith
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, PAT-P
As a trauma therapist, I specialize in using specific trauma-focused therapies like IFS and EMDR to alleviate the suffering and stuckness that come with depression, anxiety, PTSD, cPTSD, and other debilitating emotional experiences. My approach is to bring respect and gentleness to identify specifically what needs healing, help you form a foundation of stability, and then bring in the emotional transformation you're looking for - all while respecting your pacing. I love my work and would be honored to hear from you to see if we're be a good fit.

Bill Hoekstra
Psychologist, Psy.D., LP DBSM
Sleep troubles and emotional challenges can be overwhelming. Getting the right help shouldn't add to your stress. I am passionate about improving sleep and mood for my clients! I'm a board-certified diplomate specializing in sleep disorders. I also specialize in the treatment of psychological trauma, anxiety, depression, and personality issues.
For sleep issues, I focus on evidence-based approaches, including CBT-I, a gold-standard therapy that effectively addresses insomnia, nightmares, and sleep routine disruptions.
For trauma, anxiety, and depression, I offer effective treatments such as:
CBT: This well-established therapy provides valuable skills for managing negative thoughts and behaviors.
A.R.T. (Accelerated Resolution Therapy): This evidence-based approach helps process and resolve troubling experiences efficiently.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): This therapy can help alleviate the emotional impact of trauma or other distressful events.
Together, we can build a personalized plan to address your concerns and empower you to move towards a healthier, happier life. Contact me today for a free consultation and let's discuss how I can help you achieve your goals. I can help you find relief and move towards a healthier, happier life!

EMDR
Leslie Ginger
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
First hand, I know the power that negative beliefs can have on one's life. I also know what freedom and healing from those beliefs feels like. Wow, it's amazing!
I am weak. I am not enough. I am invisible.
Have you had similar thoughts to these or know that somewhere in yourself you do not fully love and accept yourself?
Together, we can identify those beliefs and work toward healing and freedom. You do not have to be in-chained to those beliefs and doubt forever.
Throughout my journey, I have spent time stateside and abroad, which gave me an even greater passion for people and helping people understand themselves more and truly find their voice. During my career in education, I became equipped in understanding young people and how to assist them in navigating life along with their parents. In addition, this lead to me specializing in trauma, the use of EMDR, and mindfulness methods as a source of healing. I enjoy working with individuals from young adolescents to mature adults, couples and families including blended families.
With support and healing, you will find your VOICE again.

EMDR
Rachel Eddins
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC
If you are looking for guidance with anxiety, fears, depression, or trauma and ptsd, it takes courage to ask for help. Admitting you can’t do everything on your own, is the first step toward achieving wellness in a fast-paced, demanding world.
You are an expert on your situation. You understand it better than anyone because you are always in it, but when was the last time you stepped away to look at it from a new perspective? My approach is focused on helping you feel that you are whole, capable, enough, and doing your best - because you are.
Maybe, you just need some new skills to cope with all that goes on in your life. What you have learned in life never covered this. Or, perhaps, you've been feeling stuck in the same cycle of symptoms and are ready to try new skills to gain relief. We will work together to implement practical skills, create new habits, and get you moving again.
My approach is more active. I will be an active participant in your healing journey. Together, we will identify your most important goals and needs and work on a plan to get you there.
