Trauma and PTSD
Dr. Kimberly E. Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, APIT
I have worked with clients who have been traumatized as a child, teenager, adult or older adult. Trauma can occur due to emotional, physical, sexual or psychological assault. Everyone experiences and manages their trauma exposure in their own unique way. Sometimes we are not even aware of events that have happened to us or have spent a lifetime trying not to remember. Regardless, that experience can impact how we think about and treat ourselves and others. Depending on the severity and duration of that trauma, it is not uncommon for it to affect our ability to work, parent, maintain relationships, function and even tolerate being around others. I work with clients who have experienced physical and psychological abuse, sexual abuse or exploitation, combat or military trauma, racism, discrimination and marginalization, sexism and violence. Everyone's story is unique and I work to help that individual process those experiences at a pace that they can manage to reclaim the life they deserve.

Dr. Sophia Aguirre
Psychologist, Ph.D., CGP, F-AGPA
My approach to working with Trauma and PTSD is holistic, integrative and collaborative. My goals for trauma/PTSD work are trifold: 1) helping you heal from difficult traumatic memories that are keeping you stuck in the past so that you can focus on what is truly important in the present 2) helping you gain insight and awareness into how your past trauma(s) are impacting the relationships in your life (relationships with others and with your own self) and 3) helping you move away from fear/avoidance-based behaviors and choices and instead, make choices in your life that are aligned with your goals and values. I am here for you when you are ready to begin your healing journey.

Rachel Ann Dine
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LPC
Flashbacks of the event or situation. Feeling on edge. Hypervigilant. Difficulty trusting others. When a traumatic situation occurs, it can bring about all of the above and cause you to feel disoriented and even wonder how you can get back to who you once were. I provide a compassionate, trauma informed approach to help women process through trauma (specific emphasis in domestic violence, sexual assault, and emotional abuse), feel back in control of your mind and body, and develop tools for healing. Traumatic events can cause a rupture in self esteem, and I want every client I work with to rebuild who you are so you feel confident in navigating through life while also feeling supported and validated in your healing journey.
