Trauma and PTSD
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.

Trauma and PTSD
Jennifer Quinn Fuller
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Trauma is always with us. We re-experience traumatic events as we move from one phase of life to the next, and thus we must also re-process the trauma. Not doing so can lead to PTSD. Biologically, we are creatures that feel first, and think second. Thus, having a safe space to explore the emotional content of our trauma and validation for those feelings is an important step in moving forward.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in trauma and PTSD, my treatment approach is rooted in compassion, safety, and evidence-based interventions. Through therapies such as cognitive processing therapy (CPT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), I collaborate with individuals to process traumatic memories, challenge negative beliefs, and develop effective coping strategies. Creating a safe therapeutic environment is paramount, allowing clients to explore their experiences at their own pace while feeling supported and validated. Psychoeducation about trauma responses and self-regulation techniques empowers individuals to manage symptoms and regain a sense of control over their lives. Additionally, I integrate mindfulness practices, relaxation techniques, and grounding exercises to promote emotional regulation and resilience. My goal is to facilitate healing, restore a sense of safety, and empower individuals to thrive beyond their traumatic experiences.

Trauma and PTSD
Sage Blackbird Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, CEDS
Trauma is anything that happens and we're not able to return to "normal". What happens after trauma is also just as important and affects how we recreate life.
My role in trauma recovery is to support you in understanding what happened, and taking back your empowerment to direct your life going forward, and how you narrate the story of your life.
