Trauma and PTSD
Inner Expansions Therapy Services
Counselor/Therapist
When a person experiences a single event trauma like a car accident their entire world changes almost instantly. When a person has repeated traumas over time, like a difficult childhood their outlook on the world shifts. Many trauma survivors have a hard time feeling safe and secure. Survivors may begin to feel anxious and depressed, they may have trouble sleeping or nightmares, and may experience other behavioral changes that are frightening to them and their loved ones.
When you have experienced trauma and begin to see some of the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), it’s time to explore treatment so you can begin healing. The idea of therapy can sometimes feel scary and overwhelming to people with PTSD. But trauma therapy is really something that can be very empowering. With the help of a caring and qualified mental health professional the person can begin to process past events in a safe way.
Trauma therapy such as EMDR and IFS has the potential to actually change the way your brain works through what is called neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity means our brains and neural pathways (how we think and feel) can change. Through specific therapy tools and strategies we can retrain our brains to let go of the fear and begin to heal.

Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Trauma can feel so overwhelming. It has a way of infecting every area of one's life. In my work with those who experience trauma I take a collaborative approach where we assess and address the trauma from all angles. We use talk therapy to process what has gone unaddressed and discover together the meaning made and the effect it had on you in your relationship with yourself and others. I also use evidence-based practices like EMDR and TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral) Therapy which allows us to address cognitive distortions and negative beliefs you hold about yourself so that you can overcome the pain and suffering and experience more joy and freedom.

Nathan Ely, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MDiv, LMFT
As an EMDR certified therapist, I help people recover from traumatic experiences. Even though our mind knows the trauma happened in the past, our bodies can relive these experiences in the present. EMDR allows the mind and body to heal and reconnect as you process traumatic experiences and move toward a place of wholeness and restoration.

Tim Eby-McKenzie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Most of my clinical career has focused on finding more efficient and effective ways to address, understand and heal the impact of trauma in people's lives. Acute Stress Disorder and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) are two ways trauma manifests in people's lives when trauma gets "stuck" in the nervous system, and cannot resolve effectively and adaptively. I use EMDR to assist clients to overcome this "stuckness" and to move forward into healthier lives.

Alethea Gard'ner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
I became interested in trauma when working with adults who were using substances to change how they were feeling, forget the past, and escape from today. Repeatedly, trauma was the cause for unhappiness in today. This led me to years of training in EMDR to help my clients process the traumatic experiences so that they no longer had to relive these experiences everyday.

Marley Cote
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, MS
Shame. Pain. Betrayal. Terror. Panic. Disgust. Rage. These are the common emotions that haunt or plague many survivors of (complex) trauma. Trauma can leave survivors feeling fragmented, dehumanized, and paralyzed. These emotions are often only one part of struggling to survive, with flashbacks and trauma responses often frustrating or flooding survivors. Many survivors often wonder if they will ever feel "normal" again after what has happened, if it is even possible to find safety again within and outside of themselves. In my work with survivors, my clients discover what it means to be grounded again within their bodies, to reclaim safety within their bodies, and to release trauma that has limited them for so long.

Therapy can offer tremendous benefits to individuals who have experienced trauma or are grappling with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Traumatic experiences can manifest in various ways and significantly impact our daily lives. Through therapy, we can collaboratively process and heal from these experiences, creating a safe and nurturing environment to explore and comprehend their effects on our mental well-being. If you or a loved one are exhibiting symptoms of trauma or PTSD, I extend an invitation to reach out and schedule an appointment with me. Taking that first step towards healing may be daunting, but it can also be incredibly empowering. Let's embark on this journey of growth and recovery together.

Heather Marriatori
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma is an emotional and psychological response to an event. This event could be something you experienced personally or something you witnessed. Your experience could include shock, denial, unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, nightmares, strained relationships and even physical symptoms like headaches or nausea. There is no reason to continue experiencing this alone. Contact me and we can discuss ways to get feeling like you're back in control and no longer suffering.
