PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can develop from being exposed to a wide variety of traumatic events such as motor vehicle crashes, home accidents, sexual assault, domestic violence, or being involved in a natural disaster. As the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V) describes it, PTSD happens after “being witness to or being exposed to situations involving threatened or actual serious physical harm or death.” But it’s important to keep in mind that experiencing a trauma doesn’t mean a person will absolutely develop PTSD.

Trauma is actually a really big umbrella. Everyone experiences trauma in their life, some are severe and some are not and how they affect people will vary from person to person. Many don't even realize that they have actually experienced trauma and don't recognize how it is truly showing up in their relationships, work and life in general. Trauma and PTSD related issue can affect EVERY area of your life.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
A trauma-informed approach underlies all of my work as a therapist. I know that many clients come to therapy not specifically because of trauma, but because they feel lonely or inadequate, they are depressed or anxious, or just cannot seem to have the intimacy they crave. Sometimes acknowledging trauma comes later in the therapy work and that is okay. Just know that I trust that you will talk about it when you are ready.
I would like to join you in acknowledging how the past has affected your present and in charting a course to healing that works for you. You may wish to talk about particular pains from the past and you may wish to focus on the future. We will work together to find the balance that is right for you, so that you can live the life that you really want to live.
