Alejandra Kenia Ipina
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Trauma can be from a single incident or from various events across time. Changing the way we perceive ourselves and the world around us. You may be feeling disconnected from your body, feeling shame, or anger without fully understanding whether you are responding to the present moment or the past. Through somatic therapy we can explore the moments you feel blended to bring clarity, release stored grief or tension to help you live in the present moment.

Jasmine Wilson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP-IT
You may carry the effects of difficult or painful experiences even if you don’t always think of what happened as “trauma.” Maybe you’re easily on edge, have a hard time trusting people, shut down when things become overwhelming, or feel responsible for keeping everyone else okay. You might be very independent, struggle to ask for help, or notice that certain situations bring up reactions that feel bigger than what’s happening in the moment.
Trauma therapy doesn’t mean you have to tell me everything that happened or revisit painful experiences before you’re ready. We’ll pay attention to what’s affecting you now and work at a pace that allows us to stay curious about what comes up without pushing past what feels manageable. Over time, the goal is to help you understand your responses, feel more able to stay with yourself when difficult emotions come up, and have more choice in how you respond to yourself, other people, and what’s happening around you.

Dr. Lynne Logan
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Trauma and PTSD can be discovered on several levels. For example -- a one time car crash. A victim or a crime. Abuse of any kind. Chronic child abuse. Relational abuse. Being bullied or humiliated. Past traumas that are not resolved are held in a special organ in the brain called the 'amygdala.' The traumatic memory can be 'triggered' off and on for years -- which can and will ultimately interfere in many aspects of ones life. The great news is that unprocessed traumas and PTSD can be effectively treated. You can be free of disturbing memories and emotional recalls that cause anxiety, flashbacks, nightmares, etc. Help is available.

Christine Jones
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Highly stressful and/or adverse events can lead to lingering trauma memories. They tend to cause disturbance in our mind and bodies, sometimes in the form of higher anxiety, mood issues, negative relationship loops, greater avoidance, and a negative impression of self. Science-based treatments have demonstrated recovery from a diverse array of traumas that stem from childhood and adulthood. Treatment outcomes often include little to no emotional charge on the worst memories, an automatic balanced sense of self, and a lifting of past symptomatology.

Karina Larios
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I received my clinical training at a Trauma Recovery Center working exclusively with victims of interpersonal violence and their families, providing intensive holistic case management, individual psychotherapy, and group psychotherapy. I received training in trauma-informed care and evidence-based practices, and specialize in exposure therapies. Minimizing PTSD symptoms so my client's can regain the power of their mind and lives is some of my favorite work.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #137593, MS
Trauma and PTSD are so incredibly common and underrecognized. People often go decades in their lives with undiagnosed PTSD and trauma without even realizing it. It is important to unveil the traumatic experiences we have gone through in our lives. Some people can experience trauma and not develop PTSD. However, there are many people who experience trauma and don't recognize they have. I am here to work with you through that. I can provide you a safe place to explore the traumatic experiences that are causing you pain, and we can begin to get your life back in order, one piece at a time.
