Nathan Duff
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC (CCTP, CYMHS, C-DBT, C-PD)
I’ve been working with trauma, particularly sexual trauma, since the 1990s. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), my approach is slow and careful. While some people are comfortable jumping right into these stories, for most people it's very difficult to even begin the discussion. I understand how difficult it can be to even begin discussing trauma, so I always start by negotiating *how* we talk about it in a way that feels safe. My work has included everything from sexual trauma, to combat, to EMS, and many complex trauma cases. Possibly because I'm male I've seen an unusual number of survivors of female sexual perpetrators, a group that face some unusual challenges that aren't often discussed.

Treating trauma and PTSD requires a comprehensive and compassionate approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment.

Through psychoeducation, skill-building, and experiential techniques, I help clients regain a sense of control over their lives while addressing symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, and avoidance.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals who have experienced trauma and its lasting emotional, psychological, and physiological effects. With extensive clinical experience treating trauma across community mental health and private practice settings, I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how trauma impacts the brain, body, and nervous system. I also help clients learn how to regulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, building skills to reduce reactivity, increase grounding, and restore a sense of internal safety. Together, we process traumatic experiences at a safe pace while strengthening emotional regulation and resilience. My approach is compassionate, structured, and trauma-informed, supporting clients as they move toward healing and integration.

Meredith Luttrell
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC, Clinical Supervisor
Trauma has a way of living in the body, in relationships, and in the stories we tell ourselves about who we are and what we deserve. With years of experience working with survivors of sexual, emotional, and physical trauma, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to process what has happened and begin reclaiming your life from it. I also recognize that trauma rarely travels alone — it often underlies eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties — and I'm skilled at holding the full complexity of that overlap.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’ve experienced trauma, you may feel like your mind and body are still reacting as if the event is happening now. You might have intrusive memories, heightened anxiety, difficulty relaxing, or feel triggered by situations that don’t seem to make sense. Even when you know you’re safe, your system may not fully believe it—leaving you feeling on edge, disconnected, or exhausted.
I help clients process and resolve trauma in a way that feels safe, structured, and effective. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to understand and shift the thoughts that keep you feeling stuck or overwhelmed. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we gently access and process the emotional patterns stored at a deeper level—helping your mind and body update their response to the present. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you reconnect with your life, your values, and a sense of forward movement.
What’s often missing isn’t awareness—you may already understand what happened and why it affected you. What’s missing is a way to help your nervous system fully process the experience so it no longer reacts as if you’re still in danger. Without that, the symptoms can persist, even when you’re trying to move on.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready for relief. If you’re willing to approach this in a supportive and effective way, I can help you reduce triggers, feel more grounded, and regain a sense of safety, control, and peace in your life.

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Trauma can impact the nervous system long after the event has passed, affecting relationships, work performance, emotional regulation, and your sense of safety. You may notice heightened anxiety, emotional numbness, difficulty trusting others, or feeling stuck in patterns that don’t make logical sense. In therapy, I take a structured, evidence-based approach grounded in CBT and trauma-informed care to help you process painful experiences safely and at your own pace. Our work focuses on restoring a sense of control, strengthening coping skills, and helping your mind and body move from survival mode toward greater stability and integration.

Vincent Espinoza
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe we all have experienced adverse events, significant moments in life and undeniable little and big traumas that have defined how we view the world. My goal in working with clients who have experienced trauma and who are addressing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) is to provide a gentle, slow approach to explore and reveal trauma, rewire the body and brain's response to the trauma and reconnect with our family, friends and the world-at-large again feeling safe and secure.

Tracey Knows
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Healing from trauma and PTSD requires a compassionate, structured approach that acknowledges both emotional and physiological responses to past experiences. I provide a safe, supportive space to process trauma at a pace that feels right, using evidence-based techniques like trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and somatic awareness. By addressing triggers, regulating the nervous system, and reframing distressing memories, individuals can regain a sense of control, safety, and self-trust. My approach emphasizes resilience, emotional integration, and reclaiming a life not defined by past trauma.
