Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
A trauma-informed approach underlies all of my work as a therapist. I know that many clients come to therapy not specifically because of trauma, but because they feel lonely or inadequate, they are depressed or anxious, or just cannot seem to have the intimacy they crave. Sometimes acknowledging trauma comes later in the therapy work and that is okay. Just know that I trust that you will talk about it when you are ready.
I would like to join you in acknowledging how the past has affected your present and in charting a course to healing that works for you. You may wish to talk about particular pains from the past and you may wish to focus on the future. We will work together to find the balance that is right for you, so that you can live the life that you really want to live.

Allison Cordts - Sunrise Therapy for Mental Health
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A., LPC
Trauma is a pesky voice in your subconscious telling you to be afraid in the current life even though the fear is in the past. Recognizing that "now" is safe is imperative to healing and moving forward in a healthy way. I can help clients process and heal from their past which opens the door to a more joyful present and a future full of possibilities

Dr. Jadah Petty
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Trauma is an experience that can impact nearly every aspect of someone's life, from relationships/trust, to work, to self-esteem, to mood and the list goes on. Finding someone who specializes in trauma/PTSD is essential to truly getting the help you need. I offer the gold standard treatments for PTSD (e.g. Cognitive Processing Therapy and Prolonged Exposure), as well as treatments like EMDR and STAIR. Building a strong relationship is the first step to help you on your journey to re-engaging in the life you want to lead. I will then help you process your trauma, understand triggers, and develop new coping strategies for managing.

Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
I have spent the majority of my practice focusing on helping people who have a history of trauma. Traumatic experiences can overwhelm the nervous system, leaving individuals stuck in chronic survival states long after the threat has passed. Utilizing evidence-based, trauma-informed modalities—including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)—I help clients safely process acute, chronic, and complex trauma (C-PTSD). Our clinical work focuses on reducing hypervigilance, dismantling intrusive flashbacks, and restoring a deep sense of somatic safety and personal autonomy.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Post-traumatic stress isn’t just about flashbacks or nightmares — it’s what happens when overwhelming experiences don’t get to complete their cycle. It’s a nervous system stuck in survival mode, long after the threat is gone. You might feel hyperaware, disconnected, emotionally numb, or easily triggered by things you can’t always explain.
I work with PTSD through a relational, trauma-informed lens that honors the intelligence of your coping strategies while helping you build new experiences of safety, connection, and choice. We don’t rush. We don’t retraumatize. We work gently, at your pace, with deep respect for the ways your body and mind have protected you.
Healing isn’t about forgetting what happened — it’s about reclaiming your sense of self outside of what happened. Together, we’ll create space for your story, your voice, and your right to feel fully alive again.

Rena Diamond
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC, NCC, CCH
Traumatic experiences can occur at any point in the lifespan, and be acute, chronic, or complex. Humans are inherently deeply resilient, yet without treatment, the aftereffects of trauma can last for years, causing physical or emotional symptoms, impacting our sense of safety in the world, and influencing our relationships in unpredictable ways.

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

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Trauma and PTSD, especially C-PTSD, includes any emotional experience that was upsetting and different than you had experienced up to that point in your life. C-PTSD often involves parental neglect, unavailability, or inconsistency. I am not one of the therapists who will tell you that you need to forgive and rebuild your relationsihp with anyone you choose not to have in your life. The idea that people should continue to endure mistreatment simply because someone is family is absurd. Of course, trauma and PTSD can include experiencing or witnessing any type of violence, abuse, accidents, or the threats of violence or abuse. Trauma has been my specialty since the beginning of my career and I have taken extensive training on the treatment of trauma. More importantly than if I am qualified to treat you for upsetting or traumatic past experiences is the fact that I will never minimize your experiences. Please do not avoid going to therapy because you think what you experienced was "not that bad." If it was upsetting to you when it happened and it still affects your life in any way I want to help you reduce or eliminate the impact of those experiences on your present day and future life.

Life By Design Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CPCS, M.Div.
Experiences from the past can continue to affect how you feel, think, and relate to yourself and others in the present. You might notice ongoing anxiety, emotional overwhelm, difficulty trusting, or feeling disconnected from yourself. At times, it can feel like your body and mind are still reacting to something that’s already over.
I help women gently process and heal from trauma in a way that feels safe and manageable. Together, we’ll work to understand your responses, reduce emotional reactivity, and rebuild a sense of stability and self-trust. Using approaches like CBT, IFS, and somatic therapy, we’ll address both the emotional and physical impact of trauma so you can feel more grounded, present, and in control of your life.
Healing from trauma takes time, but it is possible. You don’t have to navigate it alone.

Richard Scott, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Trauma can leave a lasting imprint — disrupting your sense of safety, triggering unwanted memories, and making it hard to feel present or connected. You may find yourself constantly on edge, emotionally numb, or stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand. Therapy offers a safe, supportive space to process what you’ve been through, reduce symptoms of PTSD, and begin to reclaim your life. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to face it alone. If you're ready to take that step, I’m here to help.
