Marley Cote
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, MS
Shame. Pain. Betrayal. Terror. Panic. Disgust. Rage. These are the common emotions that haunt or plague many survivors of (complex) trauma. Trauma can leave survivors feeling fragmented, dehumanized, and paralyzed. These emotions are often only one part of struggling to survive, with flashbacks and trauma responses often frustrating or flooding survivors. Many survivors often wonder if they will ever feel "normal" again after what has happened, if it is even possible to find safety again within and outside of themselves. In my work with survivors, my clients discover what it means to be grounded again within their bodies, to reclaim safety within their bodies, and to release trauma that has limited them for so long.

Marcelle Little
Marriage and Family Therapist, MPH, MA
My belief is that we all have experienced some sort of trauma whether it is chronic or acute. The vicious cycle of repeating the same experience over and over again, whether in the mind or physically, is exhausting, not to mention harmful. Through a trauma-informed approach, we take it slow to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, our calm state, to change the chemistry in our mind and body, learning self-regulating techniques to eventually integrate the experience.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
You already have displayed such a beautiful expression of courage by seeking out support. In the beginning of therapy, we’ll build on this courage by identifying what is working for you in life right now, bringing in new resources to expand the sense of safety to live and connect. Then slowly taking little tastes of deeper, painful work, we’ll move back and forth, allowing your full being to embrace this new way of living without the added weight of judgment or pressure to live any one way. We’ll consider the stories and thoughts, the emotions, the images and picture memories, as well as, the groans, pains, and numbness of your body that are charged by fight-flight-freeze-faint energy. We’ll honor all parts of you as we work together to engage all the rules of safety and connection that you’ve learned through past experiences. We’ll consider what is and is not working well for you now, and, we’ll identify new purposes for these parts of you that honor your living and connecting now.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
A traumatic experience can reset your nervous system to be chronically hyper-vigilant as if another dangerous situation is right around the corner. Chronic hypervigilance can have you on guard all the time, over-reactive, easily offended or startled, sleep deprived and feeling alone and unsupported. It is exhausting and unsustainable to live that way. And it can shut down your creativity, playfullness, relationships and physical health too. I can work with you to process trauma, anger and grief. And I can help you learn to ease your nervous system back into a more relaxed state. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that effectively free you from past traumas, self-sabotaging patterns, and help you to build the balanced, happy life you deserve.

Allie Michie, MS
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT159347
Trauma reshapes the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. It can show up as hypervigilance, disconnection, patterns that feel impossible to break, or a sense that you're never quite safe. I work with clients using a trauma-informed approach, meaning we move at your pace, with your sense of safety always in mind, and we never go further than you're ready to go.

Emma Esper
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
Trauma creates profoundly deep and painful wounds. These wounds can be difficult to heal, as we often suppress them, have difficulty expressing them, or do not have safe spaces to unearth them. Unhealed trauma can inform how we make decisions, how we see ourselves, how we see others and our world, and how we react to these things. My work with trauma survivors is to instill hope and self-worth, acknowledge and validate all emotions, create feelings of safety, and provide permission giving for struggle. Remember, it is okay to not be okay.

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Trauma can impact how you experience safety, connection, and trust—both internally and in relationships. I approach trauma work through an attachment-based, developmental lens, recognizing that overwhelming experiences often shape protective patterns that once helped you survive.
Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we gently work with parts that carry fear, shame, anger, or numbness. Emotionally Focused principles guide our work toward strengthening secure attachment and emotional safety. Therapy focuses on nervous system regulation, unburdening traumatic experiences at a pace that feels manageable, and restoring a sense of stability and self-trust.
