Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
Trauma doesn't just live in memory — it lives in the body, in automatic reactions, and in the subconscious beliefs formed in its wake. At Restored, we specialize in EMDR and attachment-based trauma therapy to address these deeper layers, helping clients process what happened in a way that genuinely shifts how they feel and respond — not just how they think. Our therapists bring both clinical expertise and deep compassion to trauma work, and our intensive formats offer accelerated options for those ready to go deeper.

Growth Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
As Bessel Van Der Kolk says "The Body Keeps the Score". This statement refers to the now scientifically proven notion that trauma is not just the "bad things" that happen to us, but what happens in our bodies as well. Trauma is the lump in our throats, the heaviness in our chests, the anxiety in our stomachs, and tension in our muscles. In order to help heal from trauma and PTSD, we need to connect to our bodies and bring the body into the therapeutic experience. I am certified in EMDR which is proven to help process and heal past trauma of all kinds, including "shock trauma" (war, natural disasters, car accidents) and "relational/developmental trauma" (emotional abuse, neglect, sexual abuse).

Grace Judd
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LAMFT
Trauma leaves its mark in the body as much as the mind—through hypervigilance, anxiety, flashbacks, nightmares, dissociation, or difficulty trusting others. I provide a deeply trauma-informed space where your system’s protective strategies are honored, not pathologized. Using EMDR, IFS, and other evidence-based approaches, we gently process painful memories, strengthen internal safety, and build resilience in your nervous system. Together, we create a path toward integration, empowerment, and a life no longer defined by what happened to you.

Jeni Gutke
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LPC
Traumatic events, big and small change feelings of safety and power as well as responsibility and self worth. Often times with PTSD, we are taking on too much responsibility for past events, which are crippling the ability to move forward and be present. Through a combination of Modalities are minds are able to clear the negative beliefs and rewire the brain to help install adaptive truth about ourselves (that our own system already possesses!) and empower us to heal and move forward in new ways, with self trust and tools to identify triggers as trailheads for healing. This is very overlooked state, effecting many Individuals, manifesting as anxiety, lack of attention, difficulty sleeping, adrenal fatigue, somatic symptoms of all kinds and chronic illnesses. When we address these through well researched modalities, we are able to clear past trauma and trust ourselves and live again in self-lead energy!

Cecelia Kowalski
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW - 22624
Trauma isn't just what happened to you — it's how your nervous system responded, and sometimes still responds, long after. I use EMDR to help your brain finish processing what got stuck, so the past can start to feel like the past.

I help clients work through complex trauma and PTSD resulting from childhood and adult attachment/relational trauma.

You will be able to process your traumas and learn to trust your internal world again. My clients are able to reconnect with themselves and gain the felt sense of safety they've been missing, allowing them to navigate the world with confidence and security.

Caitlin Derouen
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, EMDRT
I specialize in treating trauma and PTSD utilizing safe, integrative and trauma informed approaches. I am trained in EMDR, a highly effective method for treating complex and deeply rooted trauma to alleviate symptoms and remove the impact of triggers that may be affecting your daily life. EMDR seeks to use our brain's natural healing ability to alter the unhealthy internal narratives that became a part of our story when the trauma occurred. For this reason, EMDR is my preferred method for addressing trauma of almost any kind. I am also certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a technique that allows me to quickly provide patients with some relief from their symptoms through guiding them through their internal process in a creative way to encourage desensitization to triggers and alleviation of difficult symptoms.

Gilbert is one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States and one of the most family-oriented suburbs in the Phoenix metro, with a significant LDS (Latter-day Saint) community that shapes the social fabric and therapy culture — many residents seek therapists who can integrate faith values with evidence-based approaches to marriage, parenting, and anxiety. The city's rapid growth and suburban character mean social isolation and the challenge of building community in a sprawling new development are recurring therapy themes. Dignity Health Mercy Gilbert Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources, and many Gilbert residents access care through the broader Phoenix metro therapy ecosystem. The city's younger family demographic drives consistent demand for child and adolescent therapists and couples counselors.
