Colette Pauta

Trauma can disrupt your sense of safety, affect relationships, and influence how you respond to stress even long after the event has passed. Using a trauma-informed approach, I support clients in creating safety, processing difficult experiences, and reducing symptoms that affect you day to day. We'll move at a pace that feels manageable while building skills to regulate emotions, strengthen resilience, and reclaim a sense of stability and empowerment.

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.

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.

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!

Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Helping you process, integrate and reduce the emotional impact of traumatic experiences in a safe and controlled environment is my goal. This may involve identifying and altering distressing thoughts and behaviors that have followed a traumatic experience. Working with you to gradually desensitize yourself to trauma-related triggers, can help reduce avoidance and dramatically decrease anxiety. My area of expertise is the treatment of trauma and PTSD. Working in residential rehabilitations for substance use disorders and then working at the VA laid the foundation for expertise in this area. I am trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Seeking Safety, Accelerated Resolution Therapy and Written Exposure Therapy.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Trauma sits in the body and the subconscious, not in the rational mind. For working with traumatic memories, I use the Rewind Technique, an evidence-informed, content-free approach that allows the nervous system to discharge the residue of a traumatic event without requiring you to relive it in detail. This pairs well with RTT for updating the beliefs that formed inside or after the event. If you have a formal PTSD diagnosis or are in active crisis, please work with a trauma-trained clinician as your primary support. I work alongside other providers and am happy to coordinate where appropriate.
