Melissa Drinkman, Pathways To Connection
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, DBH, LCSW
At Pathways To Connection, we utilize a variety of treatment modalities to address trauma and PTSD symptoms. Based on a trauma informed perspective, we recognize that how events in our lives affect us is individual and personal. It is not the same for everyone. We can't control what might be traumatic for us and it often doesn't feel like it makes any sense. We are here to help find a space that offers you more space and comfort.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Trauma can leave lasting imprints—flashbacks, anxiety, emotional numbness, or a sense of being “stuck.” Healing begins with safety and understanding. In therapy, we’ll use evidence-based trauma approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, and DNMS to process and release painful memories at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we’ll work toward restoring trust in yourself and the world, helping you feel more grounded, empowered, and whole.

Carolyne Mburu-Gerena
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
Trauma and PTSD can impact how you think, feel, and relate to others long after the original experience has passed. I work with individuals who have experienced childhood trauma, relationship trauma, violence, or other overwhelming life events, helping them process painful memories in a safe and supportive space. Using evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches, my goal is to help clients reduce symptoms, rebuild a sense of safety, and move toward healing, resilience, and a more empowered life.

Online Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout & Life Transitions -AZ, IL, OH
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC
Trauma can leave you feeling on edge, disconnected, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break even long after the event has passed. I provide a grounded, compassionate space to help you understand your nervous system, process painful memories at a pace that feels safe, and rebuild a sense of trust in yourself and others. Using evidence based approaches like CBT and mindfulness‑based strategies, along with faith integrated support for clients who desire it, we work together to reduce triggers, strengthen emotional regulation, and create lasting healing. You don’t have to navigate trauma alone — recovery is possible, and you deserve support that honors both your story and your strength.

PTSD/Trauma
Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
There are the events that hurt people, and then the aftermath of those events that can go on much longer than the events, themselves. Together, we work at a pace that feels safe to you so you can feel more empowered. I specialize in PTSD and use EMDR, a well-researched therapy for the treatment of trauma, to produce very good results to provide relief and enable you to enjoy your life. For anyone who isn't interested in EMDR, I am also trained in Brainspotting as a treatment method.
