Nancy Witter
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHCS
I specialize in helping individuals who have experienced trauma, PTSD, and the lasting effects of difficult or painful experiences. Trauma can impact the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us, often leaving people feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck. Therapy provides a safe and supportive space to process these experiences at your own pace, develop healthy coping strategies, and rebuild a sense of safety, confidence, and control. Using a compassionate and trauma-informed approach, I work alongside clients to support healing, growth, and the development of a stronger connection with themselves.

Tiffany O'Toole
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCMHC, LPCC
Most of my professional experience has been working with military service members and their spouses. I've worked at several Marine Corps bases and am very familiar with Marine culture. In addition, I have five years of experience as a military spouse which allows me to connect and understand the military community’s issues from both a personal and professional level.
I utilize EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), yoga, breathing techniques, meditation, and mindfulness as wellness tools. I am passionate about helping survivors of trauma reconnect with their bodies. I have provided free trauma sensitive yoga classes to sexual assault survivors and volunteer with local sexual assault service programs.

Katherine Coder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC
Trauma and PTSD are ultimately forms of nervous system dysregulation and where the primitive brain may be holding onto life experience that was too early, too fast or too much ~ all of which overwhelms our natural capacities for processing. We can work with Somatic Experiencing and Deep Brain Orienting to help you move through what overwhelmed you so that your nervous system can return to a regulated state. It is very possible to heal from both trauma and PTSD, and you can do more than manage your symptoms. Our bodies are made to heal!

Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Traumatic grief can happen when a death is sudden, unexpected, violent, unexplained, or impossible to make sense of. This may include losses connected to suicide, overdose, accidents, homicide, sudden medical events, or deaths where the cause or circumstances feel unclear. Any death can feel traumatic, but traumatic grief often carries an extra layer of shock because the person was here, and then suddenly they were not.
I support adults navigating traumatic grief, including the fear, confusion, anger, guilt, unanswered questions, looping thoughts, and emotional overwhelm that can follow this kind of loss. When a death feels random, preventable, unclear, or deeply unfair, the mind often tries to search for reasons, blame, facts, or something that will make the loss feel less unbearable.
As a certified grief coach, I help clients understand why traumatic grief can feel different from other grief experiences. I acknowledge and normalize what they are thinking and feeling, explain these reactions in plain language, and offer practical tools to help manage triggers, intrusive thoughts, overwhelm, guilt, anger, and the search for answers after a traumatic or unclear death.

I believe we all have experienced adverse events, significant moments in life and undeniable little and big traumas that have defined how we view the world. My goal in working with clients who have experienced trauma and who are addressing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) is to provide a gentle, slow approach to explore and reveal trauma, rewire the body and brain's response to the trauma and reconnect with our family, friends and the world-at-large again feeling safe and secure.

When most people think of trauma they think about violence or something similar. These things can produce trauma but so can several other things. Processing trauma with a trained professional can bring a new understanding to life and happiness.

Lynette Cisneros
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LMHC
I tend to treat clients presenting with unresolved trauma relating to emotional & psychological wounds (unrelated to sexual violence or military service related trauma). These wounds may be related to upbringing and messaging learned in childhood that was toxic & now must be unlearned in order to not be repeated and/or continue to cause internal distress, external anger, resentment, shame or self blame. Make no mistake the messaging we learn in youth, as we are essentially 'sponges' at that time is powerful & can be deeply impactful. Sometimes we must examine and deconstruct these messages to move forward with more presence.

Jenelle N. Ashley
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, MCAP, CCTP
Trauma can leave you feeling disconnected, on edge, or unsure why certain emotions or reactions show up so strongly. You may notice patterns like shutting down, feeling overwhelmed, or avoiding situations that once felt easy. These responses aren’t flaws, they’re learned forms of protection that made sense at the time.
In therapy, we work together to understand these patterns with clarity and compassion. My approach is steady, supportive, and paced to your comfort. We focus on helping you feel more grounded in your body, more present in your daily life, and more connected to yourself. You don’t have to revisit every detail of the past; instead, we explore how those experiences show up now and build healthier ways to respond.
Healing is possible, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.
