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.

Kailynn Klepfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S, CCTP
I obtained my certification in treating trauma last year. I focus on how the traumatic experience (or experiences) are affecting you now and decreasing those symptoms. I was trained to not retraumatize clients so I do not not need detail of events in order to effectively treat your current symptoms. I help my clients reach their goals in treating symptoms of traumatic experiences through a variety of approaches, including CBT, psychoeducation around nervous system, inner child work, sensorimotor techniques, narrative therapy, and creative arts. Many of my current clients are struggling with Complex-PTSD and insecure attachment styles.

Priya Patel
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
We live in a fast-paced environment under pressure to succeed and keep up. As we enter each transition, we embody different roles from parenthood, sibling, caretaker, employee and the list goes on. Life quickly becomes busy with many stressors, challenges and endless to-do lists. We quickly become our own self-critic.
I bring an empathetic and safe environment where together, you and I create the real meaning behind your symptoms and begin to create a road map to achieve the healing you are striving for. You will learn many tools, among learning how to practice self-compassion, especially during these times! We will work together to reframe thinking and reactions and explore tools to better cope with life’s challenges. I specialize in helping dealing with:
Life transitions
Anxiety
Depression
Childhood PTSD
Relationship issues
Feeling lost
Grief + Loss
