Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma lives in our bodies, wreaking havoc on your nervous system, emotional reactivity, and relationships. Whether your trauma comes from early childhood experiences or a traumatic childbirth experience, we can work together to help you heal. I will help you tell your story in a setting of safety. If you prefer not to rehash what happened, we can help your body and mind process the lingering emotions, body sensations, and intrusive images using an eye movement therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy. This helps reduce symptoms in just a few sessions, often only one session. Clients says they are surprised at the quick relief from ART. Using traditional talk therapy or ART, we can continue to process what happened and help you learn to relate to the world in a different way, or help you prepare for future situations that are similar. Many women who have experienced traumatic births find ART helpful in enabling them to decide whether to have more children from a clear mind and not from a place of fear.

Gina Majestro
Psychologist, PsyD, HSP, HSPP
Sometimes it feels like you’re doing everything “right” — but inside, you still feel stuck, anxious, or disconnected from the person you want to be. Maybe you’ve been carrying old wounds for a long time, trying to hold it all together, and you’re just ready for something to finally shift.
I work with adults who are ready to move beyond survival and start truly living. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in deep respect for your story. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and protective parts that once kept you safe — and help you build new ways of feeling grounded, connected, and at home in yourself.
You don’t have to keep doing this alone. Healing is possible, even if you’ve tried before and nothing seemed to work.
I offer in person therapy in Louisville, KY and virtual therapy for adults in Kentucky, Indiana, and across 42 PSYPACT states.
If you’re ready to take that next step — I’d be honored to walk with you.

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.

New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Treating trauma and PTSD requires a comprehensive and compassionate approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment. Drawing from evidence-based therapies such as cognitive processing therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic experiencing, I work with clients to process and integrate traumatic memories in a supportive therapeutic environment. Through psychoeducation, skill-building, and experiential techniques, I help clients regain a sense of control over their lives while addressing symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, and avoidance. My specialized expertise enables me to tailor treatment to each individual's unique needs, fostering healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope for the future.

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.

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.

Erica Schultz
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC< NCC
I use EMDR therapy to help individuals heal from PTSD and trauma by addressing the lasting emotional and nervous system impacts of distressing experiences. Trauma can affect how individuals view themselves, relate to others, and respond to everyday stress, often contributing to anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional overwhelm, nightmares, or feelings of disconnection. EMDR helps the brain reprocess traumatic memories so they become less emotionally distressing and no longer feel as overwhelming in the present. Through this work, clients often experience increased emotional regulation, a greater sense of safety and empowerment, and the ability to move forward with renewed confidence and resilience.

Brandon Zahl
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Unresolved trauma is a ghost that haunts us in every part of our lives. Mental, emotional and even physical consequences manifest from our past experiences, even if we don't remember them. We don't want to "go back there" yet we remain stuck, either consciously or unconsciously, until we tap into the body's innate ability to heal from the past. Together we'll work on connecting with a sense of safety and security in the present moment and work on tools for you to manage anxiety and depression. Then we'll gently begin revisiting the unprocessed trauma, bit by bit, until we've processed it through and you are free of the past.

Grief Recovery Center
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LCSW, LMFT, LP, LPA-IPA
Trauma is any experience that overwhelms your sense of safety or well-being. It can result from abuse, assault, accidents, natural disasters, violence, infidelity, or other distressing events. Trauma may leave you feeling disconnected, anxious, numb, or on edge — even long after the event has passed.
Some people cope by withdrawing from loved ones or turning to unhealthy behaviors in an attempt to manage the pain. Others may not initially recognize their experience as traumatic, only to notice symptoms emerging months or years later.
At Grief Recovery Center in Houston, we provide trauma-informed therapy tailored to your unique experience. Whether your trauma is recent or long past, our licensed therapists create individualized treatment plans to help you process what happened, rebuild stability, and regain a sense of control.
Symptoms of trauma or PTSD may include intrusive memories or nightmares, heightened fear or hypervigilance, irritability, guilt or shame, emotional numbness, sleep disturbances, or avoiding reminders of the event. Not everyone who experiences trauma develops PTSD, but if symptoms are interfering with daily life, professional support can make a meaningful difference.
Through evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and other trauma-focused methods, we help clients regulate emotions, restore confidence, and move toward healing. When appropriate, therapy may be coordinated with medical providers for comprehensive care.
Call or text 832-413-2410 to schedule an appointment. You don’t have to navigate trauma alone.
