True You Ministries | Stacy Echeverria Co-Founder
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Pastoral Counselor
Past trauma can continue to affect how you see yourself, relate to others, and respond emotionally long after the experience has passed. I help women gently explore the wounds, beliefs, triggers, and patterns connected to painful experiences without allowing trauma to define their identity. Through compassionate, Christ-centered counseling, we work toward healing at the root, renewing your thinking, and helping you experience greater emotional freedom, peace, and security in who God created you to be.

Psychologist, PhD
Trauma work cannot work solely on a verbal level-for years, I worked in verbal therapy alone and observed people coming to better understandings of what happened to them and how it left marks even in the present day while continuing to suffer. But once I integrated EMDR and Deep Brain Reorienting into my work with people with trauma, I began to see true shifts in nervous system functioning and healing that was core deep and not just simply coping, bringing true and lasting relief from the pain of the past.

Thea Integrative Therapy: Celine R. Williams
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT #155675
Trauma and PTSD has a way of building up in our system and creating blocks in our ability to be present, achieve our goals, and self regulate. Thea Integrative Therapy understands how nefarious trauma can be when left unfelt, unexpressed, and unwitnessed. We strive to create a safe space either virtually in California or in our office in Lafayette, CA, in order to support you in sharing your experiences.
Importantly, sharing one's experiences with trauma is not enough to support our body, mind, and spirit in rebalancing from fight, flight, freeze, or fawn activation. In order to disentangle from nervous system activation and trigger reactivity, we need to *feel* the feelings associated with the trauma, while being witnessed by a safe and supportive figure. That's where we come in.
We are here to support you in the messy trenches of trauma processing, and offer you guidance to allow you to safely process and get back on track.

Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Trauma in teens rarely announces itself. It shows up as a kid who is on edge for no obvious reason, or who has gone numb, or whose reactions seem out of proportion to whatever just happened. It can look like anger, like risk-taking, like trouble sleeping, like a sudden change in who they are close to and what they will do. Sometimes it is a single event everyone knows about. Sometimes it is years of something that was never named.
What makes it trauma is not the size of the event but what it did to their sense of safety, and how much of it they had to handle alone.
I am trained in EMDR, parts work, and other trauma-focused approaches, and I work at a pace your teen sets. We do not start by asking them to tell the story. We start by building enough trust and enough internal steadiness that going near the hard material does not overwhelm them. That preparation is not a delay before the real work. It is a large part of the real work, and skipping it is how therapy ends up doing harm.
When they are ready, we process what happened so it stops living in the present tense: less reactivity, better sleep, more room to be a teenager rather than someone managing something constantly.
A note for parents. You may not be told everything, and that is by design. Confidentiality is what makes it possible for your teen to be honest, and I will explain clearly what I can and cannot share, and where the limits are around safety. I will keep you involved in the work without asking your teen to give up the privacy that makes it work.

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.
