Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with adults navigating trauma and PTSD, including the kind that doesn't always fit a single dramatic event, ongoing racialized stress, immigration-related trauma, or the accumulated weight of navigating institutions and environments not built with you in mind. My approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trained through the Beck Institute, to help process what happened and rebuild a sense of safety and stability. Many of my clients are first-generation professionals or Latinx adults for whom trauma is layered with cultural and immigration history. I offer sessions in English or Spanish.

Ashley Paulson
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LIMHP, CHt
I first focus on coping and regulation strategies before processing trauma. Hypnosis, EMDR, NLP, parts work, and guided meditations can be utilized to help process and regulate the body. I aim to help clients reduce symptoms such as anxiety and hyperviligance as well as increase trust and security in self. This process can be taken very slowly or quickly depending on client preference and needs.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
For more than 33 years, I’ve worked with adults whose lives have been shaped by experiences that were overwhelming, prolonged, or carried alone for a long time. Many are thoughtful, highly responsible people who have learned to keep going, even when something inside feels stuck, numb, or on edge.
This often includes early family dynamics that were never named as “trauma,” but still live in your body and relationships. When these kinds of experiences are ongoing or rooted in early life, they are often described as complex trauma, C‑PTSD, or developmental trauma.
Difficult or frightening experiences can also arise from single incidents or periods of crisis, such as medical trauma, accidents, or other shocks. These experiences may or may not meet criteria for PTSD, but they can still leave a lasting imprint.
These experiences can influence how you understand yourself, how you move through relationships, and how your nervous system responds to daily life. You may notice changes in mood, concentration, or energy. Some people feel constantly on alert, others shut down, and many move between the two. For some, there is a clear “before and after” in their life; for others, there is a quieter sense of having experienced more than most people realize.
In our work together, we focus on building safety and softening the impact of trauma, including PTSD and C‑PTSD, on your daily life. We pay close attention to how it impacts your body, nervous system, and relationships and to the patterns and roles that once helped you cope but may now feel limiting or costly. We move at a pace that respects your capacity and what feels possible right now, with an emphasis on choice and partnership throughout the process.

Dayna Nelson, PsyD, LP
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
EMDR therapy is an integrative psychotherapy and uses a technique called bilateral stimulation to repeatedly activate opposite sides of the brain. Dr Nelson uses EMDR to facilitate the bilateral stimulation. EMDR seems to help the brain reprocess the trapped memories is such a way that normal information processing is resumed. Dr. Nelson uses EMDR to help clients uncover and process beliefs that developed as the result of relational traumas, or childhood abuse and/or neglect

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in trauma and PTSD, my treatment approach is rooted in compassion, safety, and evidence-based interventions. Through therapies such as cognitive processing therapy (CPT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), I collaborate with individuals to process traumatic memories, challenge negative beliefs, and develop effective coping strategies. Creating a safe therapeutic environment is paramount, allowing clients to explore their experiences at their own pace while feeling supported and validated. Psychoeducation about trauma responses and self-regulation techniques empowers individuals to manage symptoms and regain a sense of control over their lives. Additionally, I integrate mindfulness practices, relaxation techniques, and grounding exercises to promote emotional regulation and resilience. My goal is to facilitate healing, restore a sense of safety, and empower individuals to thrive beyond their traumatic experiences.

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.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
My understanding of trauma has shifted along with international research on why some events create lasting challenging effects for some people but not for others. Our collective awareness has gone from thinking, “What's wrong with you?” to asking, “What happened to you?” and now focusing on, “Who was there for you?”
A simple retelling of a traumatic experience does not always deeply heal the one who suffers. While it can feel good to be truly heard, especially for those who have never told it before and need real empathy, repeatedly telling the story does not often change the subconscious beliefs implanted during the trauma or the nervous system’s reactivity.
Instead, we build a new relationship with a traumatic experience by re-approaching the memory and inviting a shift. Often the shift is around “Who could have been there for you.” While in factual reality, no one may have stopped the trauma, we can access another perspective that enables our bodies, hearts, and minds to feel supported. We can do this many ways: through role play, through calling in ancestors or pop stars or our highest selves, or by letting our wise adult-self take over the situation. Or we may use drawing materials or nature to discover a new part of the experience we didn’t realize before.
I've taken many trainings in the origins and effects of trauma and PTSD, and I find working with the nervous system and imaginal realm (creative liminal space) highly effective. I'm not a licensed mental health therapist; I'm a spiritual life coach, so my work is integrative. I offer: calm spaciousness & empathy as you talk, embodied processing options (drawing, clay work, self soothing), and inner parts work (mediated inner dialogue or a “committee of voices,” similar to Soulwork or Internal Family Systems).
Then we make a plan to implement the new shift into everyday life.

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.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed counseling for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, family issues, and a wide range of related emotional and psychological concerns. These difficulties can significantly impact daily functioning, relationships, self-esteem, work performance, and overall quality of life, often leaving individuals feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves and others.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to therapy, integrating evidence-based trauma treatment with a personalized, client-centered framework. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, therapy explores underlying emotional patterns, life experiences, and trauma histories that may be contributing to current distress.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and lasting change. Treatment focuses on processing past experiences, reducing emotional reactivity, and helping clients develop healthier, more adaptive ways of thinking, feeling, and relating.
Clients often come to therapy feeling weighed down by anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma. Brad’s approach helps clients understand how past experiences may still be influencing present-day thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and works toward resolving these patterns in a structured and supportive way.
Therapy is collaborative and individualized, designed to help clients regain a sense of control, clarity, and emotional stability. The goal is to support meaningful, sustainable change that improves relationships, strengthens resilience, and enhances overall well-being.
Brad also specializes in religious trauma counseling for individuals who have experienced harm in religious or church settings. This may include spiritual abuse, coercion, guilt-based teachings, or other distressing experiences related to organized religion. Therapy provides a safe and non-judgmental space to process these experiences and rebuild a sense of identity, meaning, and emotional safety.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond the impact of trauma and create a more balanced, empowered, and fulfilling life.

Omaha has a quietly growing therapy community shaped by its role as a corporate hub — home to several Fortune 500 companies — and the burnout and work-life balance concerns that come with it. The city has a large Latino immigrant population in its South Omaha neighborhoods, with growing demand for bilingual Spanish-English therapists and culturally informed care. Nebraska Medicine and CHI Health provide major institutional mental health resources, while private practices serve the Midtown, Dundee, Aksarben, and West Omaha areas. Omaha's mid-size scale and lower cost of living mean many therapists maintain more accessible practices than those in larger coastal cities.
