PTSD/Trauma
Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
Trauma can continue to shape how you experience yourself, other people, and the world long after the original events have ended. You may understand intellectually that you're no longer in danger, yet still find yourself reacting intensely to certain situations, struggling to trust others, feeling disconnected from your emotions, or repeating patterns you wish you could leave behind. My approach to trauma therapy goes beyond recounting what happened or learning to manage symptoms. We work at a pace that respects your capacity, exploring how past experiences continue to influence your present while creating new emotional experiences that can help shift deeply learned expectations about safety, connection, and your own worth. I work especially well with people who experienced relational trauma, narcissistic abuse, childhood abuse or neglect, or complex trauma.

PTSD/Trauma
Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma lives in the body as much as in memory, showing up as hypervigilance, flashbacks, numbness, or reactions that feel far bigger than the moment warrants. It makes sense: your system learned to protect you. I offer a careful, paced approach that respects that wisdom while helping you feel safe in your own skin again, so the past loosens its grip and the present becomes yours to live. This includes trauma tied to falls, injuries, and frightening experiences with horses.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
My hypnotic formula is trauma-sensitive. I work with men and women experiencing a full spectrum of symptoms of chronic trauma and abuse. We use a variety of frameworks to process, heal and move on in life, so that you are finally comfortable in our own skin. Ultimately, we reset your nervous system, give you the tools to emotional regulation, and progam in a pathway to safety, at all times. We get there by first looking at the symptoms you are experiencing, and the associated beliefs and emotions, then reframe them with healthier and desired alternatives, while defining your new goals. We may use a hypnotic regression to allow the inner child to confront their antagonist and finally emotionally release what's been held back and suppressed for too long. Once this happens, there is a chance to forgive (if this is appropriate and/or available to you), along with a beautiful formula where we reach a core state of love, reprocess and reframe the unwanted programming, and grow the child up to a healthy and mature adult. Throughout the process, I also provide coping skills like tapping to use in the event there is a shame or trigger spiral. I train you in the breathwork technique that can change your chemical makeup from dread or fear to an elevated, inspired state. Most clients experience release and reach a state of inner peace by the third session.

PTSD/Trauma
Odom Psychological Services
Psychologist, PsyD
I work with adolescents and adults who have experienced trauma and may be dealing with intrusive memories, avoidance, hypervigilance, emotional numbing, irritability, guilt, or difficulty feeling safe. Treatment is structured around the person’s symptoms, history, and readiness for trauma-focused work. My approach may include cognitive-behavioral and skills-based strategies aimed at reducing trauma-related symptoms and improving functioning.

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.
