PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
I have spent the majority of my practice focusing on helping people who have a history of trauma. Traumatic experiences can overwhelm the nervous system, leaving individuals stuck in chronic survival states long after the threat has passed. Utilizing evidence-based, trauma-informed modalities—including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)—I help clients safely process acute, chronic, and complex trauma (C-PTSD). Our clinical work focuses on reducing hypervigilance, dismantling intrusive flashbacks, and restoring a deep sense of somatic safety and personal autonomy.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
For more than 33 years, I’ve worked with adults whose lives have been shaped by experiences that were overwhelming, prolonged, or carried alone for a long time. Many are thoughtful, highly responsible people who have learned to keep going, even when something inside feels stuck, numb, or on edge.
This often includes early family dynamics that were never named as “trauma,” but still live in your body and relationships. When these kinds of experiences are ongoing or rooted in early life, they are often described as complex trauma, C‑PTSD, or developmental trauma.
Difficult or frightening experiences can also arise from single incidents or periods of crisis, such as medical trauma, accidents, or other shocks. These experiences may or may not meet criteria for PTSD, but they can still leave a lasting imprint.
These experiences can influence how you understand yourself, how you move through relationships, and how your nervous system responds to daily life. You may notice changes in mood, concentration, or energy. Some people feel constantly on alert, others shut down, and many move between the two. For some, there is a clear “before and after” in their life; for others, there is a quieter sense of having experienced more than most people realize.
In our work together, we focus on building safety and softening the impact of trauma, including PTSD and C‑PTSD, on your daily life. We pay close attention to how it impacts your body, nervous system, and relationships and to the patterns and roles that once helped you cope but may now feel limiting or costly. We move at a pace that respects your capacity and what feels possible right now, with an emphasis on choice and partnership throughout the process.

Jasmine Wilson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP-IT
You may carry the effects of trauma even if you don’t always think of your experiences as “trauma.” Many people living with complex trauma struggle with anxiety, shame, people-pleasing, emotional numbness, relationship difficulties, hyper-independence, or feeling constantly on edge. Often, these patterns began as ways to survive difficult environments or relationships.
Healing from trauma is not about forcing yourself to revisit everything at once. In our work, we’ll move at a pace that feels safe while helping your nervous system learn that the past is not happening now. Together, we can work toward greater emotional regulation, healthier relationships, deeper self-understanding, and a stronger sense of safety within yourself.

PTSD/Trauma
Michaela Decker
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Frequently, people who have experienced trauma develop extraordinary survival skills. Often the strategies that were critical for survival, are not sustainable long term and thwart the ability to develop satisfying work, family and/or romantic relationships. Therapy provides an opportunity to become "unstuck" and transcend thinking and behavior patterns that are holding you back from realizing your potential. I specialize in the treatment of PTSD, anxiety and depression, and am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). When distress from a disturbing event remains, the upsetting images, thoughts, and emotions may create an overwhelming feeling of being back in that moment. EMDR therapy helps the brain process these memories, and allows normal healing to resume. EMDR therapy is not complete until attention has been brought to the past memories that are contributing to the problem, the present situations that are disturbing, and what skills the needed for the future.

Cordell Pearson
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LPC, NCC
Trauma can leave you feeling stuck—like no matter what you do, you can’t move past the pain or the memories. Whether it’s from a past event or years of unresolved hurt, trauma affects more than just your thoughts. It can take a toll on your emotions, relationships, your body, and sense of self. But healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
At Freedom to Heal Counseling, I specialize in helping you break free from the hold that trauma has on your life. Through EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and other trauma-focused therapies, we can gently process painful experiences and release their grip, helping you feel lighter, more in control, and able to move forward.

Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a powerful and efficient approach to healing trauma and PTSD, often bringing significant relief in just one session, with most clients needing no more than 3-5. Unlike traditional talk therapy, ART helps your brain rapidly process and reframe traumatic memories, so they no longer feel overwhelming or intrusive. You don’t have to relive the details of what happened—ART works gently and effectively to reduce distress, ease triggers, and restore a sense of calm. If you’re struggling with flashbacks, anxiety, or the lingering effects of trauma, ART can help you find lasting relief and move forward with confidence.
Trauma isn’t just something that happened in the past—it’s something your body and mind are still carrying. If you’ve experienced trauma, whether from childhood, relationships, or a specific event, you might feel stuck in patterns of fear, anxiety, or emotional numbness. Maybe you struggle with flashbacks, nightmares, or an inability to fully relax, as if your nervous system is constantly bracing for danger. Even when you try to move forward, certain triggers can bring the past rushing back, making it feel like it’s happening all over again. This isn’t just in your head—your brain has stored trauma in a way that keeps it feeling fresh and unresolved.
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) helps your brain reprocess trauma so it no longer controls you. Unlike traditional therapy that requires talking about painful experiences over and over, ART works quickly to change how trauma is stored in the brain—without reliving the pain. In just a few sessions, ART can reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic memories, allowing you to move forward without being constantly triggered. Therapy isn’t about forgetting the past—it’s about breaking free from its grip, so you can feel safe, present, and in control of your life again. You don’t have to stay trapped in survival mode—healing is possible, and you deserve peace.

Caitlin Derouen
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, EMDRT
I specialize in treating trauma and PTSD utilizing safe, integrative and trauma informed approaches. I am trained in EMDR, a highly effective method for treating complex and deeply rooted trauma to alleviate symptoms and remove the impact of triggers that may be affecting your daily life. EMDR seeks to use our brain's natural healing ability to alter the unhealthy internal narratives that became a part of our story when the trauma occurred. For this reason, EMDR is my preferred method for addressing trauma of almost any kind. I am also certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a technique that allows me to quickly provide patients with some relief from their symptoms through guiding them through their internal process in a creative way to encourage desensitization to triggers and alleviation of difficult symptoms.

Gilbert is one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States and one of the most family-oriented suburbs in the Phoenix metro, with a significant LDS (Latter-day Saint) community that shapes the social fabric and therapy culture — many residents seek therapists who can integrate faith values with evidence-based approaches to marriage, parenting, and anxiety. The city's rapid growth and suburban character mean social isolation and the challenge of building community in a sprawling new development are recurring therapy themes. Dignity Health Mercy Gilbert Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources, and many Gilbert residents access care through the broader Phoenix metro therapy ecosystem. The city's younger family demographic drives consistent demand for child and adolescent therapists and couples counselors.
