Trauma and PTSD
Jerleen Sinkes
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
In working with trauma, my priority is to establish a space of safety and trust, where the story of your trauma is met with the utmost respect and care. I understand that trauma affects not just the mind, but the body and spirit as well. Our journey together involves gently uncovering and working through the painful memories and feelings at a pace that feels manageable for you. My goal is to help you regain a sense of control and self-worth, processing the trauma so that it becomes a part of your story without defining it. Healing from trauma is possible, and I am here to support you through every step of this transformative journey.

Dr. Susan L. Waldo
Psychologist, PhD
I find the greatest fulfillment in the work I do by helping those who feel broken and devastated by life find a path forward to create a life for themselves that is beautiful in its own way and worth living.
I experienced trauma and neglect in my childhood and did some things during that time that caused me to hate myself. I lost my father to a crime, was a victim of tragedy when my brother was killed in an airliner crash. I have felt the incredible sting and devastation of being betrayed more than once. With the help of my therapists, groups, books, and healing partners, I have created a life for myself that I absolutely love that is free of most of the pain of the past.
It is my greatest joy in life to pay forward all that has been given to me to help others find healing and freedom so they can also create a life they love.
I have worked with those who have been victims of harm and also those who have accidentally killed or irreparably harmed others. I have worked with those who due to youthfulness, drugs, alcohol, naivety, or unmanageable pressures in their life took purposeful action to hurt others and now regret it bitterly. I judge none and hope to help all achieve the freedom from the past so they may walk forward and create the life they want.
To accomplish healing from great harm, multiple therapies may be utilized. IFS to help heal internal selves that drive behaviors in unwanted ways; CBT to help manage emotions and to use the whole of the mind rather than just emotions to heal; DBT to learn skills to regulate emotions, tolerate distress, improve interpersonal relationships, and learn to be mindful; ACT to help learn to accept and commit to tolerating the past without suffering overly much or being imprisoned by it; Somatic and Art Therapy to heal pain held in the right brain, and EMDR to integrate experiences. Don’t let this list worry you, in therapy we move from one to another seamlessly and it is not required that you be familiar with these therapies. I will let you know what gems there are in each one that will help you heal.
In addition to therapies, if you have PTSD, you will learn many coping skills to manage your symptoms and make sense of what is happening to you. I will provide you with strategies that will help you feel more safe, capable, and confident and less terrified, vulnerable, and out of control as you travel the PTSD road.

Iam Jophiel, MPS, LCSW, SEP, CCTP-II
Therapist, @ Rubie Red Slippers
Trauma occurs whenever we experience too much, too fast, too soon; and this does happen at various points in the lives of all human beings. Trauma loops occur when we are unable to complete the natural release of these experiences. Instead, these experiences become trapped in our bodies, emotions and thoughts. I can help you learn to release and let go of the loop.

Sexual trauma can tell you that the world is not safe, your body is not a safe place, and that you are inherently bad and should be ashamed. The affects of sexual trauma on survivors is often widespread. Your romantic and familial relationships, professional life, physical health, sexual health, and mental health may all be affected by this experience in your life.
