PTSD/Trauma
Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC, LCMHC
Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster.
While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may discover effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or post-traumatic stress far after the event has passed.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist is fundamental to healing from trauma.
Trauma Symptoms
According to the four types of symptoms listed in the DSM-5
Avoidance Symptoms
Avoiding specific locations, sights, situations, and sounds that serve as reminders of the event
Anxiety, depression, numbness, or guilt
Re-experiencing Symptoms
Intrusive thoughts, nightmares or flashbacks
Hyperarousal Symptoms
Anger, irritability, and hypervigilance
Aggressive, reckless behavior, including self-harm
Sleep disturbances
Negative Mood and Cognition Symptoms
Loss of interest in activities that were once considered enjoyable
Difficulty remembering details of the distressing event
Change in habits or behavior since the trauma
Research has proven psychotherapy to be the most effective form of treatment for trauma. Most commonly, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) are used in treating trauma.
If you or someone you know matches the trauma symptoms listed above, I am confident that I can help and invite you to contact me today for a free consultation.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Trauma has a way of rewriting your story without your permission. Even when you tell yourself you’ve moved past it, memories can suddenly feel overwhelming, trust becomes harder, and your mind and body stay on high alert. Dr. Shields understands how exhausting and isolating this experience can be. She provides compassionate, specialized support grounded in highly effective trauma-specific approaches, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). With care, empathy, and patience, she’ll help you rebuild your sense of safety, regain your clarity, and reclaim your story—on your own terms.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
A trauma-informed approach underlies all of my work as a therapist. I know that many clients come to therapy not specifically because of trauma, but because they feel lonely or inadequate, they are depressed or anxious, or just cannot seem to have the intimacy they crave. Sometimes acknowledging trauma comes later in the therapy work and that is okay. Just know that I trust that you will talk about it when you are ready.
I would like to join you in acknowledging how the past has affected your present and in charting a course to healing that works for you. You may wish to talk about particular pains from the past and you may wish to focus on the future. We will work together to find the balance that is right for you, so that you can live the life that you really want to live.

Sarah Eisenhauer Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LCPC, LPC, AADC
If you struggle with complex PTSD and/or developmental trauma, I can work with you to move past not only the symptoms you likely struggle with in every day life, but also accompany you on a path of self discovery. For most individuals who have trauma, living in survival mode means we do not get a chance to tend to our own identity and create the life that we want. I believe you can manage difficult symptoms and discover your true self, living in alignment with who you feel you truly are. I utilize behavioral techniques (CBT, DBT, ACT) as well as a depth, psychodynamic approach.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience helping clients who have experienced physical, emotional, and/or sexual trauma, particularly in their childhood. My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to our work together, and because of this I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you.

Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
If you’ve been through painful, overwhelming, or traumatic experiences, it can sometimes feel like your mind and body are still carrying the weight of them long after they’ve happened. Trauma can show up in many ways—anxiety, emotional numbness, overthinking, difficulty trusting others, feeling constantly on edge, people-pleasing, panic, nightmares, or feeling disconnected from yourself. You may find yourself trying to hold everything together on the outside while feeling exhausted internally. In therapy, my goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you don’t have to carry those experiences alone. Together, we’ll move at your pace, focusing on helping you feel more grounded, understood, emotionally safe, and better able to reconnect with yourself and your life.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) with a compassionate and faith-centered approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healing and restoration. Recognizing the profound impact of trauma on the mind, emotions, and spirit, I create a safe and supportive environment that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on God's healing power. Drawing upon biblical teachings of comfort, resilience, and restoration, the counselor collaborates with individuals to navigate the effects of trauma and develop coping strategies. Encouraging a reliance on God's strength and the transformative power of faith, the counselor assists individuals in processing and overcoming traumatic experiences while fostering a sense of safety and trust in their Christian beliefs. This integrated approach aims to support individuals in their journey toward emotional healing, resilience, and spiritual renewal within the context of Christian values.

Trauma & PTSD: From Survival to Sovereignty
Rewiring the Alarm and Reclaiming the Present
Trauma is not just what happened to you; it is the "residue" left behind in your nervous system. It is a state where your body remains stuck in a past moment of danger, leading to a life of hyper-vigilance, emotional overwhelm, and systemic burnout. In my practice, we approach trauma with radical compassion and clinical precision, working to help your brain finally move "the then" out of "the now."
The Landscape of Traumatic Stress
Trauma often lives in the "wordless" parts of the brain, manifesting in ways that logic alone cannot reach. We work together to address:
The High-Alert System: Navigating the constant state of "fight or flight" that leads to irritability, insomnia, and an inability to relax.
The Shut Down & Dissociation: Addressing the "numbing out" or the feeling of being disconnected from your body—a protective freeze response used to survive the unbearable.
Attachment Trauma: Exploring how early "systemic" wounds in the family or spiritual community have shaped your ability to feel safe in relationships today.
A Specialized Path to Resolution
With over 20 years of experience, I integrate deep-reaching, somatic-based modalities to move beyond "talk therapy" into true neurological healing:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): As an EMDRIA-trained clinician, I use this gold-standard treatment to help your brain process traumatic memories so they no longer trigger the same intense physical and emotional distress.
IFS-Informed "Parts" Work: We get curious about the parts of you that are "stuck" in the trauma—the protectors, the exiles, and the managers—helping them find a new role in a safe present.
Systems Theory & Social Inequity: We acknowledge how external forces—power imbalances, systemic inequity, and spiritual trauma—contribute to and sustain a sense of "un-safety."
Sanctuary for the Healer
I have a "special love" for working with therapists and pastors who are carrying their own "unprocessed" trauma while holding the trauma of their communities. You deserve a peer-level space where you can finally put down the armor of the "helper" and address your own wounds with a clinician who understands the weight of your role.

Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Trauma sits in the body and the subconscious, not in the rational mind. For working with traumatic memories, I use the Rewind Technique, an evidence-informed, content-free approach that allows the nervous system to discharge the residue of a traumatic event without requiring you to relive it in detail. This pairs well with RTT for updating the beliefs that formed inside or after the event. If you have a formal PTSD diagnosis or are in active crisis, please work with a trauma-trained clinician as your primary support. I work alongside other providers and am happy to coordinate where appropriate.
