Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Painful memory and trauma can be very difficult things to overcome. They can rewire our brain's reward system and highjack our sleep, appetite and balance. At times to correct this, we have to re-experience traumatic events, but live them differently this time around. You need support, kindness and understanding to go though this. Just do not go though it alone.

Resolve Counseling PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
EYE MOVEMENT DESENSITIZATION REPROCESSING (EMDR) Therapy: EMDR is a psychotherapy approach used to alleviate PTSD and/or distress associated with traumatic memories. It involves stimulating bilateral brain activity through eye movements, sounds, or taps while the client focuses on distressing memories. This process facilitates the brain's natural healing mechanisms, helping clients process traumatic experiences and reduce their emotional intensity.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
None of us can escape some level of trauma; inevitably, it will be a part of life. How much it affects us, however, depends on many factors including the nervous system we were born with, our outer resources, and how much relational support we receive to help us recover from the trauma. Many people do not have access to adequate resources to help them recover from trauma (and this is very subjective and personal, varying from person to person), and the trauma continues to affect them in (sometimes subtle, but still) impactful ways. If certain factors come together, PTSD may develop out of trauma. Often clients feel like they have failed because they can't completely "get over" their PTSD reactions. I have often reminded clients that PTSD is "the gift that keeps on giving". It can be very hard, perhaps impossible, to completely eradicate PTSD reactions, because the reaction is not just of the mind, it is of the whole body. My approach to helping clients with trauma and PTSD involves looking at it holistically and working to understand how the trauma changed you, your reaction across many facets of your life (thoughts, feelings, habits, behaviors, self-care or lack thereof, expectations, how you view the world), and then working on replacing what is harmful with what is helpful. The goal isn't to completely get rid of the PTSD symptoms (which is likely impossible) but rather to dramatically reduce its effect on you, so you can live your best life, and so an occasional symptom breaking through will not derail you.

Best Therapies, Inc.
Therapist
There are three main types of trauma: Acute, Chronic, or Complex. Acute trauma results from a single incident. Chronic trauma is repeated and prolonged such as domestic violence or abuse. Complex trauma is exposure to varied and multiple traumatic events, often of an invasive, interpersonal nature. Sometimes people experience post traumatic responses to adverse childhood experiences, a single event or living as marginalized identities in our society. That is, some people experience trauma response by dealing with recurring microaggressions, discrimination, bullying from individuals, communities and macro aggressions such as systemic oppression. We need to consider the impact traumatic experiences have on our mind, body and overall experience as a human navigating uncertain and challenging times.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Trauma changes how we experience the world, often leaving the body in a state of constant hyper-vigilance, anxiety, or emotional numbness. Anne provides a deeply safe, predictable, and collaborative space to help you gently process past experiences and reclaim your sense of safety. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she utilizes a trauma-informed, integrative approach to help individuals unpack the impact of relational trauma, adverse life events, and systemic stress without forcing them to re-live the pain.
Because trauma is often stored deep within the nervous system where words cannot easily reach, Anne’s approach goes beyond traditional talk therapy. She pairs evidence-based trauma practices with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and art therapy. These somatic and creative tools allow clients to safely externalize and process traumatic memories, somatic tension, and overwhelming emotions at their own pace. Whether you are healing from childhood trauma, navigating the heavy weight of grief and bereavement, coping with the trauma of a medical diagnosis, or processing birth and reproductive trauma, Anne is dedicated to helping you move from survival to genuine, deep-rooted healing.

Brandon Guin
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Traumatic experiences can leave us paralyzed and pessimistic about our future. It doesn't have to be that way. I have training in using EMDR, an evidenced-based approach to treating trauma and PTSD. This approach helps the mind and body process what has happened while decreasing the risk of re-traumatizating the individual. In this manner, the individual is able to access internal and external supports and resources for the mind and body that may not have been available during the traumatic event or events.

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.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
What happened to you changed you. Maybe it was a single event. Maybe it was years of experiences that accumulated into a weight you've carried ever since. You might have flashbacks or nightmares. Or it might be subtler than that: a numbness, a difficulty trusting, a way of moving through the world always slightly on guard. Trauma lives in the body, not just the mind, and healing requires more than just talking about what happened. Our clinicians are trained in trauma-informed care that helps you process these experiences without retraumatizing you in the process. You can heal from this. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

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.
