Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
Trauma and PTSD can impact how you feel in your body, how you relate to others, and how safe the world feels. You may experience hypervigilance, shutdown, reactivity, or patterns that feel hard to change. My approach is somatic and trauma-informed, meaning we work gently with your nervous system to build a sense of safety, regulation, and capacity before processing deeper experiences. Healing happens at a pace that your body can sustain.

Dr. Danielle Watkins at Sound Wellness Counseling PLLC
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LMFT, LMHC, NCC, PMH-C
When specializing in trauma and PTSD treatment, I focus on supporting individuals who have experienced deeply distressing or life-threatening events, helping them process and heal from the lasting emotional, psychological, and physical effects. This work addresses symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, hypervigilance, and avoidance, while providing a safe and structured space to explore traumatic experiences. Using evidence-based approaches like trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and grounding techniques, counseling helps clients regain a sense of safety, process difficult memories, and rebuild resilience. The goal is to empower individuals to reclaim control, restore emotional balance, and move toward healing and post-traumatic growth.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Trauma and PTSD can significantly impact emotional connection, communication, trust, intimacy, and feelings of safety within a relationship. Gottman Method couples therapy provides a supportive and trauma-informed space for partners to better understand how trauma responses may affect relationship dynamics while strengthening connection and emotional safety. Therapy helps couples develop healthier communication patterns, increase empathy and attunement, and navigate triggers or stress responses with greater understanding and care. Whether trauma stems from current betrayal, past relationships, childhood experiences, loss, medical events, or other life experiences, the goal is to help couples build resilience, deepen support, and foster a relationship grounded in trust, compassion, and healing.
