Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Trauma affects people in many different ways and no one treatment approach can help everyone. I have experience using both psychodynamic (e.g., Supportive-Expressive Therapy) and cognitive-behavioral (e.g., Prolonged Exposure ) therapies for trauma. I have also published on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Kari Carter
Life Coach, APSATS certified, ACC, CPC, ADOH
Betrayal Trauma cam present with symptoms similar to PTSD - intrusive thoughts, hypervigilance, emotional flooding, sleep disruption, anxiety, and difficulty feeling safe. When trust has been shattered through infidelity, sexual addiction, or chronic deception, the nervous system often remains in a prolonged state of threat response.
I specialize in trauma-informed, partner-sensitive care that focuses first on stabilization and nervous system regulation before deeper processing. My work helps clients understand their trauma responses, reduce symptom intensity, establish protective boundaries, and regain a sense of internal safety. Healing is possibly when trauma is acknowledged and treated with informed, compassionate support.

Augustin Kendall
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Healing from trauma is a complex process and requires a strong relationship with a therapist so that you feel safe enough to unpack your experiences and emotions. I offer a relational framework, focusing on validating your experience and discussing options you have for working through trauma to empower you to choose your own treatment. I use a variety of tools, including brainspotting and internal family systems, to help you learn how to regulate your nervous system and integrate past trauma experiences so they no longer have a hold on you and you can move forward in your life.

Andrew McBride
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LCMHC, LPC
Do you feel constantly overwhelmed, anxious, scared and experience unwanted negative thoughts about your past? You just want your emotions and thoughts to feel manageable, and PTSD makes that reality feel impossible. Processing trauma can be vulnerable and painful work, and I strive to create an environment that is supportive, nonjudgmental, and understanding. At the beginning of treatment, we focus on developing skills for tolerating distress. When you feel ready, we can move into processing, using a variety of different treatments, including DBT and EMDR.

At Restored, we specialize in EMDR and attachment-based trauma therapy to address these deeper layers, helping clients process what happened in a way that genuinely shifts how they feel and respond — not just how they think. Our therapists bring both clinical expertise and deep compassion to trauma work, and our intensive formats offer accelerated options for those ready to go deeper.

Healing the Roots of Trauma
Whether you have experienced a single overwhelming event or years of chronic stress (complex trauma), we provide a safe, regulated environment where you can finally begin to process and release the weight of the past.
Our Specialized Trauma Tools
Traditional talk therapy can sometimes reach a plateau when it comes to trauma. That is why we utilize advanced, "bottom-up" neurological approaches that work directly with the brain’s survival centers:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): A gold-standard treatment that helps the brain "reprocess" traumatic memories so they no longer trigger intense emotional or physical pain.
Brainspotting: A powerful method that uses your field of vision to find where trauma is held in the subcortical brain, allowing for deep emotional release and healing.
DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): Focuses on emotional regulation and distress tolerance, giving you the skills to manage "triggers" in your daily life.
Youth-Focused Trauma Care (Ages 10+): We use specialized interactive software to help children and teens express and process difficult experiences in a way that feels safe and manageable.
Our Collaborative Healing Process
We never rush the trauma process. You are the leader of your journey, and we are your expert guides.

Chad T. Allen
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LPCC
I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, working with adults who have experienced trauma or continue to feel affected by overwhelming or distressing events. Trauma can shape emotional experience in ways that include anxiety, emotional numbing, intrusive memories, or difficulties with trust and safety in relationships.
My work is grounded in the belief that traumatic experiences require careful and respectful attention over time. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy provides a space to approach these experiences gradually, allowing individuals to develop understanding and meaning without pressure to revisit experiences before they feel ready. As the impact of trauma becomes more understandable, individuals often experience greater emotional stability and freedom in their relationships and daily lives.
I also work with couples when the effects of trauma influence intimacy or communication within the relationship.

Mike Kosim
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I am here to tell you that you are enough. I can help you through EMDR and family-of-origin work to help uncover and rebuild the life patterns that may not be serving you well. Sometimes these patterns show up as Anxiety. Sometimes these patterns show up as depression. Sometimes you know or suspect you have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Does it feel like sometimes you just keep looking for words describing what's wrong with you?
Diagnoses are not you. You're not broken. I can help you build the life you want to lead.

PTSD/Trauma
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.
