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.

Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE) is my psychotherapy model of choice when it comes to trauma processing. It worked wonders for the combat veterans and sexual trauma survivors I worked with at the Veterans Administration.

Clark Thompson, PsyD, MA
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
I offer comprehensive virtual neuropsychological assessments for individuals experiencing trauma-related symptoms, helping clients across PSYPACT states understand how traumatic experiences have impacted their cognitive and emotional functioning. My trauma and PTSD evaluations examine not only classic symptoms like intrusive memories and hypervigilance but also assess how trauma affects concentration, memory, executive functioning, and emotional regulation—providing crucial insights often missed in standard clinical interviews. With specialized training in neuropsychology and years of experience across various clinical settings, I create thorough assessment reports that validate your experiences, differentiate PTSD from other conditions, and provide clear pathways toward healing through targeted treatment recommendations and practical coping strategies.

Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Trauma can leave your mind and body stuck in survival mode, even long after the event. We start by building steadiness and a sense of safety in daily life, then work at a manageable pace to reduce the ways the past is showing up in the present. My goal is to help you regain control, rebuild trust in yourself, and move forward with a life that is not defined by what happened.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma lives in our bodies, wreaking havoc on your nervous system, emotional reactivity, and relationships. Whether your trauma comes from early childhood experiences or a traumatic childbirth experience, we can work together to help you heal. I will help you tell your story in a setting of safety. If you prefer not to rehash what happened, we can help your body and mind process the lingering emotions, body sensations, and intrusive images using an eye movement therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy. This helps reduce symptoms in just a few sessions, often only one session. Clients says they are surprised at the quick relief from ART. Using traditional talk therapy or ART, we can continue to process what happened and help you learn to relate to the world in a different way, or help you prepare for future situations that are similar. Many women who have experienced traumatic births find ART helpful in enabling them to decide whether to have more children from a clear mind and not from a place of fear.

Andrew McBride
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LCMHC, LPC
Do you feel constantly overwhelmed, anxious, scared and experience unwanted negative thoughts about your past? You just want your emotions and thoughts to feel manageable, and PTSD makes that reality feel impossible. Processing trauma can be vulnerable and painful work, and I strive to create an environment that is supportive, nonjudgmental, and understanding. At the beginning of treatment, we focus on developing skills for tolerating distress. When you feel ready, we can move into processing, using a variety of different treatments, including DBT and EMDR.

Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Complex trauma and CPTSD stem from more than just events in our adult years. These are usually foundational from early developmental trauma and childhood trauma, and can be worked with and healed at any age.
Trauma is not only what happened to you. It is also how those experiences continue to live within the body and nervous system long after events have passed. Using a gentle, body-centered approach, we'll work at a pace that feels safe - restoring connection, resilience, and the freedom to live more fully in the present.
Therapy helps restore safety, connection, and the capacity to move forward without remaining organized around survival. You will learn how to reparent the little ones inside and have an easier relationship with yourself and your body.

Susan Lobosco Benner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma is often at the root of many of the symptoms and struggles that bring people to therapy. I have many tools to offer to facilitate the process of healing from trauma. The first is a safe therapeutic relationship grounded in many years of experience where you will experience compassion, connection and caring that lead to insight and deepened understanding. Others include Accelerated Resolution Therapy which has proven to be a powerful way to reprocess trauma and detach from triggers, leaving you to live a life free from the daily impact of past and recent traumas. The combination of these tools and others lead to healing of both mind and body, which is essential as both are intricately involved in how we carry trauma.

Gabrielle A. Morreale / Recovered and Restored
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A. LPC.
Research shows that nearly 69% of women report experiencing some form of trauma in their lifetime, and approximately one in four individuals with eating disorders also experience symptoms of complex PTSD. In fact, PTSD is one of the most common co-occurring conditions alongside eating disorders. Trauma can significantly intensify eating disorder behaviors, often as the nervous system attempts to cope with overwhelming or unresolved experiences.
At Recovered & Restored, we understand that healing from both trauma and an eating disorder is courageous work. We also want you to know clearly: what happened to you was not your fault. Recovery may feel daunting at times, but it is deeply worthwhile. Our clinicians move at a pace that feels safe and manageable for each client, honoring your story and your readiness. We utilize a trauma-informed framework and draw from integrative, evidence-based modalities to support lasting healing.
Our Trauma-Informed Approach
Because trauma and eating disorders are so often interconnected, we prioritize trauma-informed care in all that we do. This approach recognizes the impact of trauma and seeks to create an environment that fosters restoration rather than re-traumatization.
Our work is grounded in five core principles:
Safety – Creating emotional and physical spaces where you feel secure.
Choice – Respecting your autonomy and honoring your voice in treatment.
Collaboration – Working together as partners in your recovery.
Trustworthiness – Maintaining transparency and consistency in care.
Empowerment – Supporting you in reclaiming your strength and resilience.
You deserve healing that feels steady, compassionate, and rooted in dignity.
We are formally trained in EMDR and Brainspotting!

Dayna Nelson, PsyD, LP
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
EMDR therapy is an integrative psychotherapy and uses a technique called bilateral stimulation to repeatedly activate opposite sides of the brain. Dr Nelson uses EMDR to facilitate the bilateral stimulation. EMDR seems to help the brain reprocess the trapped memories is such a way that normal information processing is resumed. Dr. Nelson uses EMDR to help clients uncover and process beliefs that developed as the result of relational traumas, or childhood abuse and/or neglect

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
Making sense of trauma, and the impact of trauma, can be accompanied by the fear that you will never be able to overcome the distress you feel when you remember the experience or when those intrusive nightmares, flashbacks, and negative thoughts come crashing into your awareness. Through trauma-focused therapy we reclaim confidence, hopefulness, intimacy, safety, self-esteem, and trust. I have specific expertise in treating trauma symptoms related to sexual assault, intimate partner violence and emotional abuse, military sexual trauma (MST), childhood and complex sexual trauma, violence, and combat trauma experienced by Veterans. These experiences can impact physical health, and daily life.
Many people will experience a form of trauma in their lives. Trauma can come with feelings of shame, anger, and confusion. Posttraumatic stress is a normal human reaction to traumatic events. However, for some individuals this stress persists and interferes with their ability to live the life that they want. I work with complex cases that sometimes include dissociation, numbness, anger, risky behaviors, and years of avoidance. The treatments I provide are the most powerful and effective treatments available for these conditions. I have expertise in individual, as well as relationship (i.e., with a partner) based trauma-focused therapies. I have experienced many times how these treatments help people gain new perspectives about what happened to them, develop a sense of empowerment over their trauma, and improve their lives. These treatments can also be helpful if you feel stuck following experiences of trauma, even if you don’t have PTSD. If you’re unsure whether you want to discuss your trauma, or unsure which approach feels like a good fit for you, we can discuss your concerns. We will explore trauma-focused care that builds upon your current support, coping skills, and personal experience. I primarily employ time-limited, evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT) such as CPT, PE, and CBCT. (See Individual and Couples Therapy based Trauma-Focused Services.)
In psychological literature, stressors are defined as events and conditions (e.g., losing a job, death of an intimate partner) that cause change and require that the individual adapt to the new situation or life circumstance. Stress processes can include the experience of prejudice events, expectations of rejection, hiding and concealing your authentic self, internalized homophobia, intimate partner violence, discrimination, and ameliorative coping processes that have become bad, ineffective habits. These experiences can be particularly painful when there is social pressure to conceal your experiences, or stigma. I address what it’s like to have no one to talk to about these experiences, and any distress that comes from having nowhere to do this work safely. I practice LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy that considers the impact of minority stress and chronic stress responses. Aside from these stress processes, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and heterosexuals who report any same-sex sexual partners over their lifetime, have greater risk of childhood maltreatment, interpersonal violence, trauma to a close friend or relative, and unexpected death of someone close.

Root & Rise Clinical Specialists
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Healing trauma requires approaches that reach beyond traditional talk therapy. At Root & Rise, we use modalities specifically designed to calm the nervous system, reprocess traumatic memories, and reduce the emotional and physiological intensity that keeps past events alive in the present. Our clinicians offer RTM (Reconsolidation of Traumatic Memories) for rapid relief from fear-based symptoms, EMDR to help the brain safely reprocess trauma and build adaptive beliefs, and EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) to release stored emotional and somatic tension. Each method targets trauma from a different angle, allowing us to tailor treatment to your symptoms, history, and level of readiness. Whether you’re dealing with acute trauma, chronic PTSD, or the long-term impact of neglect, abuse, or fear-based experiences, this integrative approach helps you feel safer, more regulated, and more in control of your life again.
