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.

Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Trauma can feel so overwhelming. It has a way of infecting every area of one's life. In my work with those who experience trauma I take a collaborative approach where we assess and address the trauma from all angles. We use talk therapy to process what has gone unaddressed and discover together the meaning made and the effect it had on you in your relationship with yourself and others. I also use evidence-based practices like EMDR and TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral) Therapy which allows us to address cognitive distortions and negative beliefs you hold about yourself so that you can overcome the pain and suffering and experience more joy and freedom.

Benedict Choi, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, EMDR, IFS Informed
I am trained in EMDR and IFS and have worked with many clients suffering from PTSD, complex trauma, as well as phobias, panic attacks and anxiety. I believe that we all have parts that hold trauma, and burdens that need releasing. I also believe in acknowledging the parts that had to adapt to extremely painful and scary experiences, parts that had to learn to protect us by numbing, dissociating, raging (to name a few). These parts had to show up this way when trauma and distressing experiences occurred, to keep you safe. It is extremely important to extended gratitude towards these protectors first before approaching the ones that hold the pain.

Nathan Ely, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MDiv, LMFT
As an EMDR certified therapist, I help people recover from traumatic experiences. Even though our mind knows the trauma happened in the past, our bodies can relive these experiences in the present. EMDR allows the mind and body to heal and reconnect as you process traumatic experiences and move toward a place of wholeness and restoration.

Sexual Recovery Coach
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, CST, CADC-III, CTA-CC
PTSD generally refers to a reaction to a single traumatic event. A memory of the event, conscious or unconscious, rises up and the person believes that it is happening now. Battlefield trauma is the clearest example of this. CPTSD (Complex Post traumatic Stress Disorder) refers to a stress disorder linked to sustained patterns of abuse, trauma and neglect. Sometimes the roots of the trauma are obvious,but not always. There is inter-generational trauma, intrauterine trauma, medical trauma and religious trauma for example. Trauma knows no time. When we are triggered, the pain and discomfort can be as real as it was when the initial events occurred. Exploring whatever adverse experiences occurred in early life, adulthood or in past generations can help you achieve a freedom from these trauma reactions. To help resolve them, I use EMDR, CBT, hypnotherapy and somatic techniques.
