Jay Shaw
Hypnotherapist, CHt (Certified Hypnotherapist)
Unresolved trauma doesn't stay in the past it runs in the background of every decision, relationship, and stress response you have today. Identity 2.0 hypnotherapy works to neutralize the subconscious charge attached to past events, reducing triggers and rebuilding a nervous system baseline that isn't controlled by what happened before. This isn't about reliving the pain. It's about removing its authority over your present identity.

Susan Lobosco Benner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma is often at the root of many of the symptoms and struggles that bring people to therapy. I have many tools to offer to facilitate the process of healing from trauma. The first is a safe therapeutic relationship grounded in many years of experience where you will experience compassion, connection and caring that lead to insight and deepened understanding. Others include Accelerated Resolution Therapy which has proven to be a powerful way to reprocess trauma and detach from triggers, leaving you to live a life free from the daily impact of past and recent traumas. The combination of these tools and others lead to healing of both mind and body, which is essential as both are intricately involved in how we carry trauma.

When working with clients experiencing trauma and PTSD, I primarily use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

I also emphasize creating a safe and supportive environment to facilitate healing and resilience.

A Better High,LLC
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, C.A.R.C.
Trauma changes the way people move through the world. Sometimes it looks obvious. Sometimes it shows up as anxiety, anger, numbness, isolation, addiction, or feeling constantly on edge. I work with people in a grounded, authentic way to help them make sense of what they’ve been carrying and begin reconnecting with themselves and the people around them. The goal isn’t pretending the past never happened — it’s helping you stop feeling trapped by it.

Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma is not just what happened, it is how the nervous system adapted in order to survive. PTSD symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, emotional numbing, or reactivity are protective responses that once served a purpose. Using approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and somatic work, we gently process trauma so your body no longer has to live as though the danger is still present.

Root & Rise Clinical Specialists
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Healing trauma requires approaches that reach beyond traditional talk therapy. At Root & Rise, we use modalities specifically designed to calm the nervous system, reprocess traumatic memories, and reduce the emotional and physiological intensity that keeps past events alive in the present. Our clinicians offer RTM (Reconsolidation of Traumatic Memories) for rapid relief from fear-based symptoms, EMDR to help the brain safely reprocess trauma and build adaptive beliefs, and EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) to release stored emotional and somatic tension. Each method targets trauma from a different angle, allowing us to tailor treatment to your symptoms, history, and level of readiness. Whether you’re dealing with acute trauma, chronic PTSD, or the long-term impact of neglect, abuse, or fear-based experiences, this integrative approach helps you feel safer, more regulated, and more in control of your life again.

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.
