Trauma and PTSD
Robert A. Walker and Associates, Counseling and Consulting Center Inc.
Counselor/Therapist
Psychotherapy—talk therapy—can take place in one-to-one meetings and/or group settings. Talk therapy helps people with PTSD in many ways. Talking about the traumatic memories with a trained therapist can provide the patient with education about their symptoms so they don’t feel so alone and out of control. Talking can desensitize people to their memories, which gradually allows them to stop avoiding reminders of their trauma. It can also help them build skills for re-evaluating the thoughts and feelings that surround the distressing memories. Most importantly, talk therapy can allow people to feel supported and safe.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
My background as a licensed psychologist and a trauma survivor uniquely positions me to offer compassionate and effective support to individuals who have experienced trauma, whether it be abandonment or physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. My personal journey through trauma has given me firsthand insight into the complex and often challenging process of healing. This, combined with my education and professional experience, enables me to approach therapy with deep empathy, understanding, and a genuine connection to my clients' experiences. I believe in the power of resilience and the potential for growth in the face of adversity, and I am dedicated to helping survivors on their path to recovery and empowerment.
With EMDR as my primary treatment modality, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise in guiding individuals towards trauma healing. My approach focuses on collaboratively identifying trauma targets for processing while also prioritizing resourcing techniques to reestablish a sense of safety and inner peace. Through EMDR therapy, I help clients transform the way traumatic memories are stored in the brain, ultimately freeing them from flashbacks, nightmares, and avoidance patterns associated with trauma. My commitment is to support individuals on their journey to reclaim their lives and find lasting relief from the effects of trauma.
