Trauma and PTSD
Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
There are the events that hurt people, and then the aftermath of those events that can go on much longer than the events, themselves. Together, we work at a pace that feels safe to you so you can feel more empowered. I specialize in PTSD and use EMDR, a well-researched therapy for the treatment of trauma, to produce very good results to provide relief and enable you to enjoy your life. For anyone who isn't interested in EMDR, I am also trained in Brainspotting as a treatment method.

Trauma and PTSD
Candice Dow
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC,
CPTSD Healing Rooted in Safety, Connection, and Self-Compassion Living with Complex PTSD often means carrying invisible wounds from relational trauma, chronic stress, or developmental disruptions. I support teens, college students, and adults in gently untangling these patterns—without rushing or retraumatizing. Our work centers nervous system regulation, relational repair, and reclaiming your sense of self. Using EMDR, attachment-based care, and practical tools for shame, dissociation, and emotional overwhelm, we’ll co-create a space where healing feels possible. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Your story matters, and your resilience deserves to be honored.

Trauma and PTSD
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
For more than 33 years, I’ve worked with adults whose lives have been shaped by experiences that were overwhelming, prolonged, or carried alone for a long time. Many are thoughtful, highly responsible people who have learned to keep going, even when something inside feels stuck, numb, or on edge.
This often includes early family dynamics that were never named as “trauma,” but still live in your body and relationships. When these kinds of experiences are ongoing or rooted in early life, they are often described as complex trauma, C‑PTSD, or developmental trauma.
Difficult or frightening experiences can also arise from single incidents or periods of crisis, such as medical trauma, accidents, or other shocks. These experiences may or may not meet criteria for PTSD, but they can still leave a lasting imprint.
These experiences can influence how you understand yourself, how you move through relationships, and how your nervous system responds to daily life. You may notice changes in mood, concentration, or energy. Some people feel constantly on alert, others shut down, and many move between the two. For some, there is a clear “before and after” in their life; for others, there is a quieter sense of having experienced more than most people realize.
In our work together, we focus on building safety and softening the impact of trauma, including PTSD and C‑PTSD, on your daily life. We pay close attention to how it impacts your body, nervous system, and relationships and to the patterns and roles that once helped you cope but may now feel limiting or costly. We move at a pace that respects your capacity and what feels possible right now, with an emphasis on choice and partnership throughout the process.

Trauma and PTSD
Matthew Jones
Licensed Professional Counselor, MSCC, LPC
"Trauma is Trauma!" It is a belief that the client is the one that gets to define the situations that they feel have been impactful and have changed the course of their life. Using Trauma Focused-CBT, we will work side by side in helping to go through the trauma in a narrative fashion. This will be done only after building trust and using psychoeducation for a more thorough understanding of the impacts on trauma no matter what age it has occurred. It takes time to heal, but these are things that happened and do not have to hold you back anymore. Let's start the process of healing for you.

Aurora is one of Colorado's most ethnically diverse cities and home to Buckley Space Force Base, creating a therapy community shaped by both military families and a remarkably multicultural civilian population that includes large communities from East Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. The city's proximity to Denver and its own rapidly expanding healthcare sector — anchored by Children's Hospital Colorado and UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital on the Anschutz Medical Campus — give it significant institutional mental health resources and a large population of healthcare workers navigating occupational stress. Therapists experienced with military trauma, refugee resettlement, and bicultural identity serve distinct and important roles in Aurora's clinical landscape. The city's rapid growth has accelerated demand for therapists who specialize in life transitions and the challenges of building community in a fast-changing suburban environment.
