PTSD/Trauma
Christina Dee
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
Human beings have an innate ability to overcome the effects of diverse traumas. Because trauma destabilizes the nervous system, life can be experienced with a tremendous amount of stress and reactivity (hyperarousal) as well as numbness and indifference (hypoarousal). When we address the emotional and energetic aspects of trauma, our higher-self can re-engage with the distressed body to nurture recovery and rebalancing. The practice of resourcing (the ability to use internal and external resources to constructively achieve a relaxed but alert state of being) builds up and restores long-term resilience. Resourcing anchors our nervous system with calm and ease, enhances our ability to respond to spontaneous stress and refreshes our sense of self, connections to others, and feelings about the world.

Liza Roth, MA, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Many of us have experienced some form of trauma and don't realize how it currently impacts us. If you have experienced complex trauma throughout your childhood, healing doesn't happen quickly and it can be frustrating to work through. As a trauma-informed and EMDR-trained therapist, I support clients in processing and healing from traumatic experiences — gently, at your pace, with deep respect for your nervous system. It's not something you have to do alone.

We utilize integrative approaches such as Somatic EMDR or Biofeedback as a tool to intervene on trauma. These approaches allow for the processing of trauma through your body’s natural healing system.

Marley Cote
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, MS
Shame. Pain. Betrayal. Terror. Panic. Disgust. Rage. These are the common emotions that haunt or plague many survivors of (complex) trauma. Trauma can leave survivors feeling fragmented, dehumanized, and paralyzed. These emotions are often only one part of struggling to survive, with flashbacks and trauma responses often frustrating or flooding survivors. Many survivors often wonder if they will ever feel "normal" again after what has happened, if it is even possible to find safety again within and outside of themselves. In my work with survivors, my clients discover what it means to be grounded again within their bodies, to reclaim safety within their bodies, and to release trauma that has limited them for so long.

I have training in CBT and CPT for trauma. This involved examining how self and other beliefs have been impacting, learning about trauma processing and healing parts of yourself.
