Justin O. Green
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
While sometimes it is obvious to people that they have encountered a trauma that is affecting their life, many may not be able to recognize the specific symptoms that interfere with their ability to feel "normal" again. Identifying the issue is the first step in the process of recovering from the harmful experiences life can send your way.

Elinor Nygren Szapiro
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA LPC, EMDR II, Brainspotting Certification, Hypnotherapy
Difficult and traumatic events, even ones that may seem like 'not that big a deal', stay lodged in our physical bodies and nervous systems. When you find yourself overreacting (or having a bigger reaction than a situation seems to warrant), that is often because the current situation is activating/triggering a previous event/trauma. Trauma is held in the body, below the mind, and, therefore, cannot be cleared by talk therapy alone. Thebody/mind, neurophysiological methods of Brainspotting and EMDR reach into the body and the primitive brain where the trauma is held and can help gently release the trauma.

Ben Livesay
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma often represents a defining force in the lives of those that it impacts. The emotional impact of your life experiences can leave you feeling powerless, victimized, anxious and afraid, unwilling to take chances or risks, and unable to have healthy relationships. But trauma is a solvable problem. You can learn to regain emotional stability and regain resilience, to turn the worst thing that ever happened to you into a source of strength. I can help you walk through the darkness of your past to examine your beliefs about yourself and reconnect with the truth about yourself and the world around you. Don’t live in the experience of untreated trauma, schedule an appointment today.

Devon Davasher
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CCM, CFSW, Master ART Practitioner
I work with adults who are living with the effects of trauma, including anxiety, hypervigilance, nightmares, shame, emotional numbness, relationship difficulties, or feeling stuck in survival mode. Therapy can help you process what happened, feel safer in your body and mind, and move toward healing with support that feels steady and practical.
