Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC, LCMHC
Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster.
While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may discover effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or post-traumatic stress far after the event has passed.
In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist is fundamental to healing from trauma.

Arazeli Wagner
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I support adults who are healing from trauma and PTSD, including experiences rooted in childhood, relationships, or family systems. Trauma can show up as emotional overwhelm, hypervigilance, shutdown, or difficulty feeling safe in your body or relationships. Therapy focuses on building safety, awareness, and new ways of responding with greater choice and self-trust.

Dr. Stacie McPherson
Psychologist, M.A., Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
The effects of trauma often extend far beyond the event itself—showing up as hypervigilance, avoidance, intrusive thoughts, or a persistent sense that you're not safe even when the danger has passed. I specialize in helping adults understand how trauma has shaped their nervous system and develop tools for reclaiming a sense of safety and control.

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.
