PTSD/Trauma
Tara McGrath
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I have a special focus on religious trauma and related issues. I am EMDR trained and for some, this will be the main approach to therapy. However, it is not my only approach. Religious trauma is usually a complex trauma, or as I often say, trauma by 1000 paper cuts. Therefore, it's important for us to build trust and rapport, and to go slow.

Trauma changes the way the nervous system reacts to the world. My approach helps clients feel safe again in their own bodies and regain a sense of choice in how they live, rather than feeling stuck in old survival patterns.

PTSD/Trauma
Hilary Stokes
Therapist, PHD, LCSW
We experience trauma when the stress or fear of threat overwhelm our system and we are not able to consciously process everything that is happening. Our instincts take over and our nervous system goes into survival mode to help us deal with the situation. This is a process known as neuroception, where we assess risks and react via our primal instincts. This looks like the part of our nervous system that is capable of survival and takes a primary role and we either fight, flight, freeze, appease or collapse in response to what is happening. Our rational thinking brain takes a back seat to let our instinctual emotional brain take over. Once we experience an event as traumatic, our nervous system makes it difficult to get out. The part of our brain responsible for memory of details, time, space and basic facts becomes far less active and our sensory memory takes over. We can lose track of the details making it challenging to recall what happened after the fact. The traumatic experiences get stored at a sensory, visceral, and often nonverbal level in our implicit memory. We may experience this at more of an unconscious level making it difficult to fully process at a more cognitive or conscious level.
These memories tend to get suspended or stuck in time leaving a residue of unresolved distressing energy. This puts a lot of stress on the mind-body system, is exhausting and inevitably is not sustainable. Healing as a result requires accessing the implicit memories that exist outside of our ability to verbalize and rationally process our thoughts about what happened. Brainspotting, EMDR , somatic therapy and other mind body therapies known to access implicit memory networks are vital to healing. They help move memories from an unconscious and unresolved state to a more conscious and adaptive state.
