Trauma and PTSD
Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Traumatic experiences often involve a physical threat to life or safety but any situation that leaves a person feeling isolated, helpless, and overwhelmed can result in Trauma. Traumatic events include accidents, abuse, bullying, neglect, breakups, humiliation, chronic illness, or the sudden death of a loved one.
Trauma can often manifest in destructive behaviors such as substance abuse, self-harm, and codependency. An individual struggling with past traumas can experience insomnia, irritability, aches and pains, fear, anxiety, and hopelessness. Trauma can affect work performance and relationships, cause one to withdraw and isolate from others, and potentially resort to using drugs or self-harm in order to cope with the intense emotions.
Whatever the cause of the trauma – and whether it happened recently or in childhood – therapy can help. A therapist can use a variety of modalities including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Talk Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques to help reprogram and heal the traumatic memories so a healthier, happier life can be realized.

Trauma and PTSD
Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Trauma is the experience not just of what happened to us, but by how our bodies, neurology, and hearts respond to what happened to us. Traumas of 'small t' and traumas of 'big T' both create adaptions to our true selves that can lead in our being 'stuck' in ways that don't serve us, that may create more trauma, or disconnection from our true selves and to our relationships with others. We have multiple ways of healing trauma, including complex traumas, including Flash Therapy, EMDR, hypnosis, somatic work, art therapy and more. Coming back to your true self, perhaps for the first time, is not a journey to be missed.

Kailah DeJurnett
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
PTSD makes you feel stressed and afraid after the danger is over. It affects your life and the people around you. PTSD starts at different times for different people. Signs of PTSD may start soon after a frightening event and then continue. Other people develop new or more severe signs months or even years later. Trauma can be different things to different people: (experiencing natural disasters, childhood abuse and neglect, survivor of domestic violence, etc)

I help clients work through complex trauma and PTSD resulting from childhood abuse and neglect.
