In our work together, we focus on building emotional safety, strengthening coping skills, and understanding how past experiences may be impacting your present. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, connected, and empowered as you move toward healing and reclaiming a sense of stability and control in your life.

Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Trauma often sits at the core of many emotional and relational challenges, shaping how we experience ourselves, others, and the world. It’s natural for the body and mind to respond to reminders of past experiences as if they are still happening. I work with you to gently process and rework these experiences, so they feel more integrated and rooted in the past rather than the present.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have experienced physical, emotional, and/or sexual trauma, particularly in their childhood. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you.

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.

Beck Gardner
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A.
Trauma can have surprising and destabilizing impacts on so many areas of one's life. Understandably so, because it can be scary and painful to talk about, it can often go unexplored, hiding the ways in which it's impacted a person. I work with folks to provide a space where we attempt to understand traumatic experiences they've been through and the various ways that trauma has impacted them.

Meghan Luse
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCPC
Post-traumatic stress can make the world feel exhausting and unpredictable. Your brain and body have adapted to survive, which can leave you feeling stuck in "fight or flight" mode or entirely shut down. Our work centers on helping your nervous system unlearn these survival responses. We focus on collaborative, paced steps to process the emotional weight of your experiences, helping you build a life that feels safe and manageable.

Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
Trauma and PTSD can leave lasting effects that show up in thoughts, emotions, and the body—often long after the original experience has passed. Many people feel stuck in patterns of fear, self-blame, or hypervigilance, even when they understand logically that they’re no longer in danger. In therapy, I offer a steady, compassionate space to make sense of these responses, helping you understand how trauma shaped both your beliefs about yourself and your sense of safety in the world.
My approach to trauma healing weaves together insight, somatic body-based practices, and Emotion-Focused Tapping (EFT). We work gently with the body to release stored stress while also addressing the beliefs that trauma leaves behind—such as feeling powerless, unsafe, or unworthy. True healing happens when both the mind and body are included in the process. Over time, clients often experience greater calm, self-trust, and a renewed sense of control, allowing life to feel more grounded, connected, and whole again.
