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.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Trauma and PTSD, especially C-PTSD, includes any emotional experience that was upsetting and different than you had experienced up to that point in your life. C-PTSD often involves parental neglect, unavailability, or inconsistency. I am not one of the therapists who will tell you that you need to forgive and rebuild your relationsihp with anyone you choose not to have in your life. The idea that people should continue to endure mistreatment simply because someone is family is absurd. Of course, trauma and PTSD can include experiencing or witnessing any type of violence, abuse, accidents, or the threats of violence or abuse. Trauma has been my specialty since the beginning of my career and I have taken extensive training on the treatment of trauma. More importantly than if I am qualified to treat you for upsetting or traumatic past experiences is the fact that I will never minimize your experiences. Please do not avoid going to therapy because you think what you experienced was "not that bad." If it was upsetting to you when it happened and it still affects your life in any way I want to help you reduce or eliminate the impact of those experiences on your present day and future life.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Trauma has a way of rewriting your story without your permission. Even when you tell yourself you’ve moved past it, memories can suddenly feel overwhelming, trust becomes harder, and your mind and body stay on high alert. Dr. Shields understands how exhausting and isolating this experience can be. She provides compassionate, specialized support grounded in highly effective trauma-specific approaches, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). With care, empathy, and patience, she’ll help you rebuild your sense of safety, regain your clarity, and reclaim your story—on your own terms.

Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Trauma is the experience not just of what happened to us, but by how our bodies, neurology, and hearts respond to what happened to us. Traumas of 'small t' and traumas of 'big T' both create adaptions to our true selves that can lead in our being 'stuck' in ways that don't serve us, that may create more trauma, or disconnection from our true selves and to our relationships with others. We have multiple ways of healing trauma, including complex traumas, including Flash Therapy, EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), clinical hypnosis, somatic work, art therapy and more. Coming back to your true self, perhaps for the first time, is not a journey to be missed.

Gregory Smith
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), BCPC
Since trauma is at the root of PTSD and dissociation, I understand the effects that trauma has upon an individual. In the 1990's, I worked as a North Carolina Paramedic and experienced the effects that trauma can have upon an individual. Whether it is childhood traumas, military experience traumas, or any other unexpected experiences that the flight and fight response system was not an option, and therefore, the freeze response resulted in the trauma; healing requires various approaches. Being a pastor living overseas for 19 years ministering to American military stationed outside of the USA has given me many opportunities to minister to those affected by trauma. Often those who experienced traumatic experiences on more than one occasion develop complex PTSD with dissociation. My experience working with dissociative individuals is very beneficial when understanding and helping those with PTSD and sometime complex PTSD.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
My understanding of trauma has shifted along with international research on why some events create lasting challenging effects for some people but not for others. Our collective awareness has gone from thinking, “What's wrong with you?” to asking, “What happened to you?” and now focusing on, “Who was there for you?”
A simple retelling of a traumatic experience does not always deeply heal the one who suffers. While it can feel good to be truly heard, especially for those who have never told it before and need real empathy, repeatedly telling the story does not often change the subconscious beliefs implanted during the trauma or the nervous system’s reactivity.
Instead, we build a new relationship with a traumatic experience by re-approaching the memory and inviting a shift. Often the shift is around “Who could have been there for you.” While in factual reality, no one may have stopped the trauma, we can access another perspective that enables our bodies, hearts, and minds to feel supported. We can do this many ways: through role play, through calling in ancestors or pop stars or our highest selves, or by letting our wise adult-self take over the situation. Or we may use drawing materials or nature to discover a new part of the experience we didn’t realize before.
I've taken many trainings in the origins and effects of trauma and PTSD, and I find working with the nervous system and imaginal realm (creative liminal space) highly effective. I'm not a licensed mental health therapist; I'm a spiritual life coach, so my work is integrative. I offer: calm spaciousness & empathy as you talk, embodied processing options (drawing, clay work, self soothing), and inner parts work (mediated inner dialogue or a “committee of voices,” similar to Soulwork or Internal Family Systems).
Then we make a plan to implement the new shift into everyday life.

You are the only one who can determine what felt traumatizing to you. We can work together to understand the trauma, and find ways to facilitate your healing. Your healing is not dependent on those who have harmed you. Apologies/acknowledgement may never come. But! You can heal. Post traumatic stress does not have to e a life sentence. You can make the difference in your own life. It may not seem possible now - but it is. I'd like to help.
