Trauma and PTSD
Carolyn Duhn
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
Often PTSD and trauma is thought of as being related to severe abuse, sexual assaults, and direct combat, however, much pain and personal heartache can occur due to other less obvious, but maybe more common occurrences like car accidents, a breakup, the lack of emotional support growing up, or even work-related stress. I'm trained in EMDR, Brainspotting and Splankna to treat PTSD.

Trauma and PTSD
Jamie Andersen, M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Woodland Counseling
As Gabor Mate says:
"Trauma is a Greek word for wound. Literally that's what it means. So when you understand that, then you realize...trauma is not what happens to you. Trauma is what happens inside you as a result of what happened to you. "Trauma is not the event that inflicted the wound. So, the trauma is not the sexual abuse, the trauma is not the war. Trauma is not the abandonment. The trauma is not the inability of your parents to see you for who you were. Trauma is the wound that you sustained as a result. I have worked with trauma throughout my career and will support you in your healing process. Up to 70% of adults will experience a traumatic event in their lives, sometimes this turns into a PTSD condition. Receiving trauma therapy to assist you on your healing journey can make a big difference. I often combine EMDR and IFS in the trauma work I do with clients and have found many clients respond well to these therapy techniques.

Trauma and PTSD
Denver Wellness Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Here at Denver Wellness Counseling we specialize in EMDR and trauma/PTSD counseling. Our therapists have achieved advanced training in what we call Elevated EMDR, meaning the ability to effectively combine modalities and adapt the EMDR basic protocol to best meet the needs of the client.
Therapy for Trauma and PTSD have some primary components, including (but not limited to), gathering history, identifying parts of self related to the trauma (wounded younger parts and protector parts), building and practicing skills for self-regulation and self-soothing, resourcing by strengthening internal qualities and sources of positive affect, reprocessing traumatic memories (EMDR), and integrating adaptive themes and positive messages about self and the world.
Traumatic memories are stored differently in the brain, remaining in their "raw" form, in isolation from our adaptive (helpful) information, and able to impact our day-to-day experiences. With PTSD, our traumatic memories can frequently cause us to flash back into trauma-related thoughts, feelings, sensation, and action urges (fight, flight, freeze, submit, cry for help). EMDR uses eye movements or other bilateral sensations (similar to those found in REM sleep) to activate and encourage the brains natural ability to "reprocess" memories, which can both desensitize the memory (take the intensity out) and allow integration with the more adaptive neural circuitry. This process of emotional reprocessing can thus take the power away from these memories so they stop replaying and impacting our current functioning.

Trauma and PTSD
Anissa Corser
Therapist, MSW, SWC
Unlock your trauma healing through nervous system regulation. I have completed extensive trainings on healing trauma with a focus on nervous system health and the staged trauma recovery approach. I am especially interested in bottom-up, body-centered somatic techniques as well as expressive arts approaches for supporting clients in processing trauma, making sense of their current reality, rewriting their story, and rewiring their nervous system for health. When it comes to trauma, I often integrate non-talk therapy techniques, such as more artistic or creative imagery-based visualization, parts-work, expressive writing, and other somatic practices, as key parts of the brain impacted by trauma often communicate better through images or sensations than words. I recently completed a training on Written Exposure Therapy, a brief 5-session model effective for acute PTSD.

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
Natalie Stemati
Psychologist, Psy.D.
A lot of people experience trauma within their family of origin. I work with developmental (childhood) and attachment (ways of learning how to emotionally bond) trauma which includes growing up in alcoholism, abuse, conflict, parent death and/or any traumatic experience endured during childhood. As a result, a lot of people develop a type of insecure attachment that impacts their current relationships (i.e. dependency, fear, conflict, anxiety).
