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.

Kari Carter
Life Coach, APSATS certified, ACC, CPC, ADOH
Betrayal Trauma cam present with symptoms similar to PTSD - intrusive thoughts, hypervigilance, emotional flooding, sleep disruption, anxiety, and difficulty feeling safe. When trust has been shattered through infidelity, sexual addiction, or chronic deception, the nervous system often remains in a prolonged state of threat response.
I specialize in trauma-informed, partner-sensitive care that focuses first on stabilization and nervous system regulation before deeper processing. My work helps clients understand their trauma responses, reduce symptom intensity, establish protective boundaries, and regain a sense of internal safety. Healing is possibly when trauma is acknowledged and treated with informed, compassionate support.

Chris Tickner
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, MFT
Trauma is what happens when we experience something that is overwhelming or life-threatening. Sexual or physical abuse, neglect, accidents, natural disasters, crime, loss of loved ones... All of these things can leave a mark. Our brain responds to trauma the way it has for thousands and thousands of years. And while that helped us survive in more primitive times, today it can leave us unable to function, riddled with fear and anxiety, avoiding the very things that used to bring us pleasure. At its worse, trauma becomes Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. The good news is that the field of psychology, through the use of brain imaging, has developed powerful treatment approaches to the resolution of trauma and PTSD. The field of Somatic Psychology has been a hotbed for the development of effective treatments including EMDR, Brainspotting, Somatic Experiencing, and Sensori-Motor Psychotherapy. With 25 years of experience, training in many of these approaches, and both an MA and Ph.D. in Somatic Psychology, I am eager to help you recover from the devastating impact of trauma.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to reduce the effects of trauma. Some of us have trauma that affects our bodies, others are emotional and some are more spiritual. Boundary violations of any kind can lead to PTSD, whether they are big "T" traumas or small "t" traumas, our brain can process through the event(s), but sometimes it gets stuck, so EMDR can break the paralysis. We can get stuck in the left brain, right brain or amygdala and end up paralyzed. We use the eye movement to allow our three brains to calm down and listen to and soothe one another. Getting those three parts of your brain all active usually break the stranglehold of trauma.

Juliana Sloane
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Hypnotherapy for trauma can be an incredible tool for healing. Whether you're grappling with the long term effects of childhood or developmental trauma, or trying to find relief after a more recent event, hypnosis offers a proven path for freedom and relief. A life with fewer triggers and more ease is possible. One of my clients recently shared with me:
"Just a couple years ago, there were so many moments with my trauma responses where I felt like “This is never going to change.” And it has completely changed. My nervous system is completely different."
It may not have been a magic bullet that fixed her in one session, but over time, as we worked on the triggers, the reactions, and the patterns locked away in the body and mind, it became more and more possible to change behaviors, feelings, thoughts, and so much more. Not only that, but we managed to have fun along the way- embracing hope, strength, joy, and laughter - all while healing trauma. This is my goal for every client I work with - to feel more free, more themselves, more able to live the life they really choose.
