Trauma and PTSD
Jennifer Sander
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, CCTP, CCFP
As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and Certified Compassion Fatigue Professional, I am well-versed in various trauma-informed approaches that cater to a number of experiences including caregiver burnout & vicarious trauma. I have experience working with individuals who have an abuse history (sexual, emotional, physical, trafficking, etc.), and I tailor these skills to also help those coping with medical trauma and compassion fatigue. Using neuropsychological research and holistic practices, you will learn to build upon the medical model to incorporate additional approaches that help you cope not only with what has happened, but also prepare you for unexpected future crises as well.

Trauma and PTSD
Kayla Jarred
Psychologist, PsyD
Whether your experience of trauma is recent (acute) or long term (chronic), it is never to later to work your way through the impact that traumatic event had your life. Work to understand your reactions/responses to situations and then discover ways to overcome the negative impact the trauma had on your thinking, emotional responses, and other overwhelming experiences. Either through a structured program, or just through discussion, self-exploration, and skill building, pick your path and stride forward.

We don't seek to make sense of the past trauma or explain the cause of it. We believe what has happened cannot be erased or explained and instead seek to use the past experiences as a growth step.

Trauma and PTSD
Telespera Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor
When people hear "trauma" or "PTSD," they often think of major events like natural disasters or wars. However, symptoms of PTSD can arise from many other adverse experiences. Sometimes, it’s not just a single event but a series of challenges that sets PTSD in motion. Common symptoms include mood swings, feeling emotionally numb or disconnected, struggling in relationships, or having intense emotional reactions that don’t seem to match the situation.
It’s important to recognize that trauma affects everyone differently. For example, two people might experience the same event—like a car accident—but respond in completely different ways. One might bounce back quickly, while the other might need more time to heal. This range of responses is normal and valid.
Many people have encountered some form of trauma, though it can help to think of these experiences as “speed bumps” rather than defining them solely as trauma. Like speed bumps on the road, these moments encourage us to slow down, reassess, and move forward with care. Even when they catch us off guard or cause pain, they don’t have to stop us entirely.
The good news is that advances in therapeutic techniques have made recovery from trauma more accessible, faster, and more comfortable than ever before. By addressing the lingering effects and understanding individual responses, healing becomes not only possible but empowering.

Trauma and PTSD
Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Treating trauma has been a specialty of mine for almost 15 years. I mostly use Cognitive Processing Therapy to understand the impact trauma has had on you and your life and then we use skills to address the thoughts that are keeping you stuck in old patterns. We will talk about important themes like safety, trust, power/control, esteem, and intimacy as a part of your trauma patterns. Changing how you think about trauma can help you get unstuck and live in more peaceful ways.
