Francis A. Bax
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LMHC, LPC, CASAC-Master
Dealing with symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder can be hard on the body and can be debilitating. I teach clients the importance of self-care and explore healthier lifestyle choices. Clients learn about relaxation techniques such as sensory mindfulness and awareness and deep breathing which can activate the body's relaxation response and ease symptoms of PTSD.

Stacy King
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
In 2020, I was trained in Compassionate Inquiry, a trauma-based psychotherapeutic method developed by Dr. Gabor Matè that reveals what lies beneath the appearance we present to the world. His view is that trauma is at the root of all human dysfunction, addiction, affliction, disease, confusion, and separation from the self.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
Making sense of trauma, and the impact of trauma, can be accompanied by the fear that you will never be able to overcome the distress you feel when you remember the experience or when those intrusive nightmares, flashbacks, and negative thoughts come crashing into your awareness. Through trauma-focused therapy we reclaim confidence, hopefulness, intimacy, safety, self-esteem, and trust. I have specific expertise in treating trauma symptoms related to sexual assault, intimate partner violence and emotional abuse, military sexual trauma (MST), childhood and complex sexual trauma, violence, and combat trauma experienced by Veterans. These experiences can impact physical health, and daily life.
Many people will experience a form of trauma in their lives. Trauma can come with feelings of shame, anger, and confusion. Posttraumatic stress is a normal human reaction to traumatic events. However, for some individuals this stress persists and interferes with their ability to live the life that they want. I work with complex cases that sometimes include dissociation, numbness, anger, risky behaviors, and years of avoidance. The treatments I provide are the most powerful and effective treatments available for these conditions. I have expertise in individual, as well as relationship (i.e., with a partner) based trauma-focused therapies. I have experienced many times how these treatments help people gain new perspectives about what happened to them, develop a sense of empowerment over their trauma, and improve their lives. These treatments can also be helpful if you feel stuck following experiences of trauma, even if you don’t have PTSD. If you’re unsure whether you want to discuss your trauma, or unsure which approach feels like a good fit for you, we can discuss your concerns. We will explore trauma-focused care that builds upon your current support, coping skills, and personal experience. I primarily employ time-limited, evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT) such as CPT, PE, and CBCT. (See Individual and Couples Therapy based Trauma-Focused Services.)
In psychological literature, stressors are defined as events and conditions (e.g., losing a job, death of an intimate partner) that cause change and require that the individual adapt to the new situation or life circumstance. Stress processes can include the experience of prejudice events, expectations of rejection, hiding and concealing your authentic self, internalized homophobia, intimate partner violence, discrimination, and ameliorative coping processes that have become bad, ineffective habits. These experiences can be particularly painful when there is social pressure to conceal your experiences, or stigma. I address what it’s like to have no one to talk to about these experiences, and any distress that comes from having nowhere to do this work safely. I practice LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy that considers the impact of minority stress and chronic stress responses. Aside from these stress processes, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and heterosexuals who report any same-sex sexual partners over their lifetime, have greater risk of childhood maltreatment, interpersonal violence, trauma to a close friend or relative, and unexpected death of someone close.

Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
Trauma has a way of living in the body and shaping the way we see ourselves and other long after the vents themselves have passed. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help clients approach their trauma gently and at their own pace, without having to relive or force anything. The goal is not just to cope, but to genuinely heal, and I'm in it for the long-run.

Yaffa Dyckman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Traumatic experiences and PTSD can be so hard to live with. It can mean sleepless nights, avoidance of people and places, hypervigilance and more. EMDR is a highly effective treatment for PTSD. I am an EMDR certified clinician. I have seen the wonderful results that EMDR can have with both traumatic experiences and memories as well as with negative beliefs and feelings that we take out of trauma.I take the pace that is right for each client. Let's do this work together. It can be a game changer.

Gregg Unterberger
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC
Trauma is acutely painful for clients. Friends tell them to just "let go of the past," but they don't realize that traumatic events get deeply embedded in the brain as a fight-or-flight panic response and they can't just shake them off! Maybe you have discovered that mere talk therapy does little to bring relief. But the newer desensitization approaches I use often bring relief in sessions, not years!

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From the perspective of Somatic Experiencing, trauma isn't the thing that happened 15 years ago (or last week), it's the ongoing effects that that incident continues to have on your body.
We can work together to figure out how your body is still reacting to that incident, and work to help your body 'catch up' to the present moment. If you're safer now than you were then, there are ways we can help your body 'complete' the threat response from so long ago, and land in the comparative safety of the present moment.
I can't treat PTSD, so if you've been diagnosed with PTSD you should still work with a licensed mental health professional, even as you work with me. What I can do is support your body in turning down the volume on that threatened feeling that has been coming up since the trauma-inducing events.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
The purpose of therapy for trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is to assist individuals in recovering from the emotional and psychological effects of traumatic experiences. Various events, including accidents, abuse, violence, natural disasters, and witnessing traumatic events, can cause trauma. PTSD is a trauma-related disorder characterized by intrusive and distressing memories, avoidance of trauma-related stimuli, negative mood and cognitive changes, and heightened arousal.
The selected therapeutic approach for trauma and PTSD may vary depending on the individual's specific requirements, the nature of the trauma, and their treatment objectives. Numerous clinicians may combine therapeutic approaches to develop a comprehensive, individualized treatment plan.
It is essential to recognize that trauma therapy can be emotionally taxing, as individuals may be required to confront distressing memories and emotions. Consequently, working with a qualified and experienced trauma therapist who can provide a secure and supportive environment throughout the recovery process is crucial.
Suppose you or someone you know is experiencing trauma or PTSD symptoms. In that case, it is strongly recommended that you seek assistance from a mental health professional trained in trauma therapy to begin the healing and recovery process.
