Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I have 10 years of experience working with individuals and families impacted by trauma, including complex trauma, relational trauma, and PTSD. Trauma can take many forms and often affects not only how we think and feel, but also how we relate to others, how safe we feel in the world, and how we see ourselves.
In my work, I support clients in making sense of their experiences at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Trauma can leave people feeling stuck in patterns of hypervigilance, anxiety, emotional numbness, shame, or difficulty trusting others. For many, these responses are not just psychological, but also deeply connected to the body and nervous system.
I approach trauma work with care, stability, and a strong focus on creating a sense of safety in the therapeutic relationship. Together, we work to gently process painful experiences while also building tools for grounding, regulation, and emotional stability in the present moment. I integrate both insight-oriented work and practical coping strategies to help clients understand how their past continues to impact them today, while also supporting change and healing.
My goal is to help clients feel less alone in their experiences, reconnect with a sense of internal safety, and gradually move out of survival-based patterns and into a life that feels more grounded, present, and whole.

There is a trauma to everyday life that we all experience and trauma from childhoods and even inherited trauma passed down through the generations. There are multiple approaches to trauma and our course will depend on the type of trauma you have experienced and what your needs are. I have 28 years working at a Veterans hospital setting and have expertise in working with psychological trauma.

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.

Dr. Michelle Woogen
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma causes us to act in ways that are different than how we want to act. Although we are aware of our behavior, trauma makes it difficult for us to act differently, as our body and mind are doing their best to keep us safe from what it fears will harm us (again). Learning how trauma shows up for you and slowly tackling your behaviors and fears, one step at a time, you can overcome the barriers you are experiencing.

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.

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!
