Kelsey Broussard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Trauma can leave lasting imprints on both the mind and body, affecting how you feel, think, relate to others, and move through the world. My approach to trauma therapy emphasizes safety, collaboration, and pacing, recognizing that healing happens when we move at a speed that feels manageable and supportive. Through a combination of somatic awareness, mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and evidence-based therapeutic techniques, we will process difficult experiences, release stored tension, strengthen your sense of self, and cultivate greater resilience.

Dr. Monica Dyer
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, DNP, MPH, FNP, PMHNP
As a Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, my passion is helping people feel seen, supported, and understood during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. I believe that healing happens through connection, honesty, and safe space, and my goal is to offer care that feels grounded, collaborative, and genuinely human. I am so grateful to work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and many other mental health struggles. I provide both medication management and supportive therapeutic care.
For patients healing from trauma, I also offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy, a gentle approach that helps people move forward without being overwhelmed by their past. My background includes street medicine, community health, and international humanitarian work, all of which have shaped my respect for the resilience and complexity of the human experience.
I strive to understand your story—not just your symptoms—and to partner with you in creating a plan that aligns with your needs, values, and goals. To heal, we need to feel safe, heard, and empowered. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to walk with you, support you, and help you rediscover hope, strength, and stability on your path forward.

Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in complex trauma and PTSD, including childhood trauma, relational trauma, and long-term emotional abuse. Using EMDR and attachment-based therapy, we process unresolved experiences so they no longer drive current triggers, anxiety, or relationship patterns. Healing focuses on nervous system regulation, integration, and restoring a sense of safety and empowerment.

Dr. Jacqueline Bentley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Do not let your past dictate your future. Many of us experience traumatic events that can lead to Post traumatic stress disorder or deal with various symptoms of PTSD. After experiencing a trauma, our mind can be triggered by a number of people, events, places and things, which activate our "fight or flight" response. It is best to deal with trauma head on, no matter how scary it may seem. My approach to dealing with trauma is to help you identify and cope with triggers you may be experiencing (knowingly or unknowingly) and learn to more effectively manage your behaviors and emotions related to the traumatic experience.

Shannon Stern, LPC-S, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, LMHC
Trauma symptoms include: flashbacks, sleep troubles, negative beliefs about yourself, feeling unsafe, dissociation, hypervigilence, and more. Trauma symptoms can arise from moments of danger or threats to safety, or moments in childhood that caused great emotional distress. EMDR and IFS can be helpful in addressing these memories and helping your brain and body feel safe again.

Melinda Switzer - Beauty for Ashes Trauma Therapy and Treatment
Counselor/Therapist, Melinda Switzer, MA, LPC, NCC
Trauma and PTSD is the field that I have chosen as my primary specialty. I have been working with clients who have experienced this for the past four years. Before getting my therapy license, I volunteered on the East Texas Critical Incident Stress Debriefing Team. I am also still a member of this team, but my role has changed, I can now participate as a mental health professional on the team, when before I got my license, I functioned as a Peer Counselor. My background as a Paramedic for years has influenced me in this field. Many first responders suffer from PTSD and the most proven method to help them is with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). https://compassionworks.com/a-mothers-story-september-suicide-awareness-month/

I am a trauma specialist. Trauma — whether from childhood, relationships, military service, first responder work, or sudden life events — leaves lasting imprints on the nervous system and on how you see yourself and the world. I use trauma‑focused approaches like EMDR and IFS to help you process what happened with safety and clarity, and skills‑based approaches like DBT and CBT to support you in building steadier, healthier ways of coping. My style is gentle and directive. Together, we work to calm your nervous system, untangle the patterns that trauma created, and help you feel grounded, empowered, and more fully yourself again.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
My background as a licensed psychologist and a trauma survivor uniquely positions me to offer compassionate and effective support to individuals who have experienced trauma, whether it be abandonment or physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. My personal journey through trauma has given me firsthand insight into the complex and often challenging process of healing. This, combined with my education and professional experience, enables me to approach therapy with deep empathy, understanding, and a genuine connection to my clients' experiences. I believe in the power of resilience and the potential for growth in the face of adversity, and I am dedicated to helping survivors on their path to recovery and empowerment.
With EMDR as my primary treatment modality, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise in guiding individuals towards trauma healing. My approach focuses on collaboratively identifying trauma targets for processing while also prioritizing resourcing techniques to reestablish a sense of safety and inner peace. Through EMDR therapy, I help clients transform the way traumatic memories are stored in the brain, ultimately freeing them from flashbacks, nightmares, and avoidance patterns associated with trauma. My commitment is to support individuals on their journey to reclaim their lives and find lasting relief from the effects of trauma.
