The Caruso Wellness Center PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, MART, MA, ALMFT
Trauma and PTSD can leave individuals feeling unsafe in their own bodies, disconnected from others, and stuck in patterns of fear, hypervigilance, or emotional numbness. I provide trauma-informed counseling grounded in Adlerian Psychology and informed by polyvagal theory, integrating an understanding of meaning, belonging, and nervous system regulation. From an Adlerian perspective, we explore how early experiences shape beliefs about safety, worth, and connection, while also building courage and encouragement toward healing and growth. Using a polyvagal-informed lens, we focus on helping your nervous system move from survival states into greater regulation, safety, and connection.
I have a particular focus and training on religious trauma, recognizing the deep pain that can result from harmful spiritual environments, coercive belief systems, or experiences of rejection within faith communities. In this work, I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where your story can be honored, your experiences validated, and your sense of self carefully restored. Together, we work toward reclaiming safety, rebuilding trust, and integrating mind, body, and meaning in a way that supports long-term healing and resilience.

Danielle Keys at Headway
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.S.ED, LCPC
Trauma is sometimes unknown or related to a specific event in one's life. During the assessment, you'll be asked specific questions in order to capture if there is trauma known in your life. Sometimes trauma is carried around through no fault of the client, however, the client has to choose to do something about it. I use Person-Centered, Dialectical Behavior, or Trauma-Focused CBT approaches with clients. The goal is to help client's express themselves without judgement, to be heard, validated, and encouraged to make choices to minimize and accept certain types of distress.

Headline: Healing Where the Story is Stored: A Somatic Path to Trauma Recovery
Beyond Just Talking About It
If you have lived through trauma, you know that the past doesn't just stay in the past. It shows up in your body as a tightened chest, a constant state of "high alert," or a heavy, persistent exhaustion. When traditional talk therapy isn't enough, it’s often because your nervous system is still stuck in a survival loop.
My Approach: Integrated Somatic Therapy
I provide a holistic, bottom-up approach to healing that honors the deep connection between your mind and body. We move beyond the "narrative" of your trauma to address the physical reality of how your body has stored those experiences. Through specialized, embodied practices, we will:
Address Physical Manifestations: Gently track and release the stored tension, chronic pain, or "freezing" responses that keep you stuck.
Facilitate Deeper Processing: By quieting the analytical mind and listening to the body’s "unspoken voice," we create space for emotional release that words alone cannot reach.
Rebuild Safety & Regulation: You will learn tangible tools to settle your nervous system, allowing you to move from a state of "reacting" to a state of resilient presence.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals experiencing trauma and PTSD by providing a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space to process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable. Trauma can impact thoughts, emotions, relationships, and the sense of safety in the world, and may show up as anxiety, hypervigilance, intrusive memories, or emotional numbing. In therapy, I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help identify and work through unhelpful beliefs related to the trauma, along with supporting coping skills and emotional regulation. The focus is on reducing the ongoing impact of trauma, strengthening resilience, and helping you move forward with a greater sense of safety, control, and self-understanding.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, can't relax, or struggle to trust people, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats trauma and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
As a psychologist working with trauma, I utilize evidence-based treatments to help clients process and heal from their experiences. I often use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to assist clients in addressing and reframing the negative thought patterns and emotional responses associated with their trauma. This approach helps them develop coping strategies and gradually face and work through their traumatic memories. Additionally, I incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to facilitate the processing of distressing memories and reduce their emotional charge. My approach is empathetic and client-centered, ensuring that each individual feels supported and empowered throughout their recovery journey. By applying these evidence-based treatments, I aim to help clients regain a sense of safety and control, ultimately guiding them towards healing and resilience.

Dr. Sarah Pouliot
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Trauma did not wait for consent; Therapy must. While many different therapeutic modalities exist for the treatment of trauma and PTSD, what remains essential is the thoughtful and careful negotiation of pacing between therapist and client such that the therapeutic process feels as manageable and tolerable as possible. Given that trauma so often results from harmful relational dynamics that force agendas or remove personal agency, trauma therapy must offer a healing space that does not seek to rush, pressure, or impinge. Rather, and in my professional opinion, it's imperative that trauma therapy respect the client's experience of what feels manageable at any given moment in therapeutic time and space, working to avoid unnecessary setback and potential retraumatization. I feel this is best achieved through the development of a reliable therapeutic rapport and relationship that functions to carefully and mindfully co-monitor and co-negotiate the everchanging and expanding dynamics between therapist and client. Put another way, your therapy should not be forced into someone else's timeframe or methodology; it should be allowed to develop in step with your specific history, unique needs, and comfort level. Please refer to my Trauma Blog on my website (pouliotpsychologicalservices.com) for more information on my approach to the treatment of trauma.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
For more than 33 years, I’ve worked with adults whose lives have been shaped by experiences that were overwhelming, prolonged, or carried alone for a long time. Many are thoughtful, highly responsible people who have learned to keep going, even when something inside feels stuck, numb, or on edge.
This often includes early family dynamics that were never named as “trauma,” but still live in your body and relationships. When these kinds of experiences are ongoing or rooted in early life, they are often described as complex trauma, C‑PTSD, or developmental trauma.
Difficult or frightening experiences can also arise from single incidents or periods of crisis, such as medical trauma, accidents, or other shocks. These experiences may or may not meet criteria for PTSD, but they can still leave a lasting imprint.
These experiences can influence how you understand yourself, how you move through relationships, and how your nervous system responds to daily life. You may notice changes in mood, concentration, or energy. Some people feel constantly on alert, others shut down, and many move between the two. For some, there is a clear “before and after” in their life; for others, there is a quieter sense of having experienced more than most people realize.
In our work together, we focus on building safety and softening the impact of trauma, including PTSD and C‑PTSD, on your daily life. We pay close attention to how it impacts your body, nervous system, and relationships and to the patterns and roles that once helped you cope but may now feel limiting or costly. We move at a pace that respects your capacity and what feels possible right now, with an emphasis on choice and partnership throughout the process.

Trauma can leave you feeling on edge, disconnected, or like you’re constantly reliving the past. Maybe certain memories, people, or places still trigger you in ways that feel out of your control. If you’re feeling stuck in survival mode, therapy offers a safe space to begin healing. We’ll move at your pace—unpacking the pain, calming your nervous system, and helping you feel safe in your body again. You are not what happened to you—and you don’t have to face it alone.

Sarah Eisenhauer Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LCPC, LPC, AADC
If you struggle with complex PTSD and/or developmental trauma, I can work with you to move past not only the symptoms you likely struggle with in every day life, but also accompany you on a path of self discovery. For most individuals who have trauma, living in survival mode means we do not get a chance to tend to our own identity and create the life that we want. I believe you can manage difficult symptoms and discover your true self, living in alignment with who you feel you truly are. I utilize behavioral techniques (CBT, DBT, ACT) as well as a depth, psychodynamic approach.

Dr. Kimberly E. Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, APIT
I have worked with clients who have been traumatized as a child, teenager, adult or older adult. Trauma can occur due to emotional, physical, sexual or psychological assault. Everyone experiences and manages their trauma exposure in their own unique way. Sometimes we are not even aware of events that have happened to us or have spent a lifetime trying not to remember. Regardless, that experience can impact how we think about and treat ourselves and others. Depending on the severity and duration of that trauma, it is not uncommon for it to affect our ability to work, parent, maintain relationships, function and even tolerate being around others. I work with clients who have experienced physical and psychological abuse, sexual abuse or exploitation, combat or military trauma, racism, discrimination and marginalization, sexism and violence. Everyone's story is unique and I work to help that individual process those experiences at a pace that they can manage to reclaim the life they deserve.
