Lee Chase
Psychologist, Ph.D.
The impact of a single, traumatic event or experiencing an environment that provides a chronic sense of danger can have a debilitating effect on how we view the world and how we function in it. Through therapy, we'll identify how your experiences of trauma are manifested in your body and thoughts, and work on improving upon your awareness of triggers and improving coping behaviors.

Gemstone Wellness, Inc.
Psychologist, PsyD, LCPC, LCSW, LPC
At Gemstone Wellness, trauma is understood not as something that simply “happened in the past,” but as something that continues to live in the body, the nervous system, and the way you move through the world. We approach trauma with the recognition that your responses—whether anxiety, numbness, hypervigilance, or shutdown—are not dysfunctions, but adaptive strategies your system developed to survive.
Our work is deeply trauma-informed and grounded in nervous system regulation. Rather than pushing you to revisit painful experiences before you’re ready, we prioritize safety, trust, and pacing. Therapy begins with building a relationship where you feel genuinely seen and supported, allowing your system to settle enough for deeper work to unfold. From there, we gently help you process what you’ve been carrying so it no longer holds the same intensity or control over your present life.
We integrate approaches such as Trauma Focused CBT and relational, insight-oriented therapy to support healing without re-traumatization. The goal is not to erase your past, but to help you relate to it differently—so memories can be held without overwhelming your body, and triggers no longer dictate your reactions.
Throughout this process, therapy remains collaborative and attuned. You are never rushed, pushed, or expected to move faster than your system allows. Over time, many clients begin to feel a shift: less reactivity, more presence, a greater sense of safety in their body, and a reconnection to themselves and others.
Trauma therapy at Gemstone Wellness is not about forcing change—it is about creating the conditions where healing can happen naturally, at a pace that honors what you’ve been through.

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.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Trauma has a way of showing up and persisting despite our efforts to keep it at bay. For some, it’s like a thorn that has settled into place and doesn’t hurt too badly as long as you focus your attention elsewhere. For others, it’s an unavoidable, constant source of pain, anger, and fear. Whether it happened recently or decades ago, trauma can take up valuable space in our lives. This may come in the form of unwanted memories, difficulty trusting others, feeling on edge, irritability, avoiding certain situations, or maybe all of the above. Unfortunately, efforts to avoid thinking about past traumatic events often keep people from seeking treatment and finding relief. Although challenging, addressing and resolving emotional wounds can be incredibly liberating and rewarding. Trauma treatment can positively shift the lens through which you see yourself, your relationships, and ultimately the world around you.

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.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I believe that most people who come to therapy, have some form of trauma in their life. Often people don't recognize the " little t traumas". I also work with people who have been through traumas such as sexual abuse and assault. I am able to use EFT with clients to help to clear the trauma from their body.

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.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma work cannot work solely on a verbal level-for years, I worked in verbal therapy alone and observed people coming to better understandings of what happened to them and how it left marks even in the present day while continuing to suffer. But once I integrated EMDR and Deep Brain Reorienting into my work with people with trauma, I began to see true shifts in nervous system functioning and healing that was core deep and not just simply coping, bringing true and lasting relief from the pain of the past.
