PTSD/Trauma
Eileen Griffin
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma can affect how you understand yourself, what you expect from other people, how safe you feel in relationships, and what happens when you’re overwhelmed. I work with adults experiencing the ongoing effects of developmental and relational trauma, including experiences of neglect, emotional abuse, instability, and other situations where you had to adapt before you had the resources to understand what was happening. Therapy can help you make sense of those adaptations, develop more choice in how you respond, and build a life that isn’t organized entirely around what happened to you.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have extensive experience supporting individuals in navigating the impacts of relational trauma. My clinical training and experience has focused on intimate partner violence/domestic violence, sexual assault, physical and emotional abuse, and the trauma inherent in foster care / residential treatment placements. I'm passionate about working with individuals on lessening the constraints that trauma and PTSD can have on their lives.

Dr. Ashley Gulden
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Trauma and PTSD can profoundly disrupt your life, affecting relationships and leading to avoidance in work and home life. It’s important to know that PTSD is treatable, and you can feel safe again. I have published research on the impact of trauma and mind-body approaches to alleviating its symptoms. I also have formal training in EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Rhythms in Regulation Polyvagal Certification, and trauma-informed Mind-Body Medicine. Together, we can reduce the impact of trauma and effectively treat PTSD. Healing from trauma and processing difficult moments is a journey I consider an honor to support. I look forward to creating a safe space for you to heal.

Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
Trauma often leaves us responding to the present as though the past is still happening. Many reactions that feel confusing or frustrating today once served an important protective purpose, even if they no longer fit your current life. Through a compassionate, trauma-informed approach, we'll work to understand those patterns instead of judging them. Together, we'll help you develop greater flexibility in responding to painful emotions while creating a stronger sense of safety and connection in the present.

Gregory Smith
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), BCPC
Since trauma is at the root of PTSD and dissociation, I understand the effects that trauma has upon an individual. In the 1990's, I worked as a North Carolina Paramedic and experienced the effects that trauma can have upon an individual. Whether it is childhood traumas, military experience traumas, or any other unexpected experiences that the flight and fight response system was not an option, and therefore, the freeze response resulted in the trauma; healing requires various approaches. Being a pastor living overseas for 19 years ministering to American military stationed outside of the USA has given me many opportunities to minister to those affected by trauma. Often those who experienced traumatic experiences on more than one occasion develop complex PTSD with dissociation. My experience working with dissociative individuals is very beneficial when understanding and helping those with PTSD and sometime complex PTSD.
