Sheryl Boyle
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A., LPC, CART, EMDR Certified Therapist, BSP Certified Therapist, BSP Consultant-in-Training, ICBCH Certified Professional Hypnotist, PPNE
Trauma and PTSD are held in our bodies. Memories, feelings, smells, sounds, sites, situations, and events can act as stimuli being triggered into intense emotional or physical reactions, such as panic attacks. Therapeutic interventions help our brains to learn new ways to reorganize synaptic connections resulting in lessening or release of symptoms and triggers from the trauma(s). EMDR and other evidence-based modalities integrative therapies are used. After successful EMDR therapy, emotional distress is relieved, negative beliefs and limitations are reformulated into positive beliefs and strengths, and physiological arousal is reduced. EMDR therapy is offered online with eye movement, audio or physical bilateral stimulation based upon the client's preference.

Psychologist, MPsy, PsyD
I place a high value on authenticity, empathy, and safety, and strive to work on clear goals to improve well-being. As a daughter of immigrants, someone dealing with two autoimmune diseases, I wish to use my personal experiences to better assist those who struggle with identity and health issues, and difficult transitions. It is not uncommon to experience trauma when struggling with complex medical health diagnoses.

Ryan Holliman
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC-S
You don’t talk much about that day, but it still upsets you. That traumatic experience has infected all the other parts of your life. You find yourself avoiding situations and people that remind you of it. It’s getting to the point that your spending most of your life avoiding things. And that memory hurts. Sometimes you feel like your broken, and wonder if your life will ever feel “normal” again. You’ve tried to talk to family, but they can’t do much more than lend a sympathetic ear. And you’ve been to therapy, but you just talked about the trauma over and over, and that didn’t really seem to help anything. So is this it?
When I work with clients struggling with trauma I use an intervention called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). While I could tell you all the neuroscience, what really happens in EMDR is we drain all of the emotions from your traumatic memory and install a positive belief about yourself.
Through EMDR we help you finally recover from the past. You can discard the negative beliefs about yourself that traumatic experience made you believe, and you can recapture a healthy and positive life. You need a trusted guide to help you through your trauma, and I can help. Call today to schedule a free initial 15 minute consultation.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
As a psychologist working with trauma, I utilize evidence-based treatments to help clients process and heal from their experiences. I often use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to assist clients in addressing and reframing the negative thought patterns and emotional responses associated with their trauma. This approach helps them develop coping strategies and gradually face and work through their traumatic memories. Additionally, I incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to facilitate the processing of distressing memories and reduce their emotional charge. My approach is empathetic and client-centered, ensuring that each individual feels supported and empowered throughout their recovery journey. By applying these evidence-based treatments, I aim to help clients regain a sense of safety and control, ultimately guiding them towards healing and resilience.
