Ignite Counseling Colorado
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, LMFT, CSAT
Trauma can affect every person differently, often showing up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, difficulty trusting others, intrusive memories, or patterns that feel hard to break. Recognizing the lasting effects of distressing experiences is often the first step toward healing. At Ignite Counseling Colorado, we use evidence-based trauma therapies tailored to your unique needs and healing process.
Our trauma treatment approaches include:
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): A structured therapy that helps the brain reprocess traumatic memories so they feel less emotionally overwhelming and disruptive.
- Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT): An approach that combines cognitive and behavioral strategies to help process trauma and build healthier coping skills.
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT helps you develop psychological flexibility by learning to respond to difficult thoughts and emotions with greater acceptance and intention.
- Internal Family Systems (IFS): IFS helps you understand and heal the different parts of yourself that may carry the pain, protection, or emotional burdens created by trauma.
Our goal is to help you move beyond survival mode, process unresolved pain, and create lasting healing and resilience.

Timothy Long
Registered Psychotherapist
I myself grew up in a toxic, dysfunctional, abusive family. It caused me to suffer many years from severe complex PTSD, anxiety, depression, social anxiety with severe blushing, and much more. Trauma and PTSD can be caused by many experiences in childhood or in our adult years. Just talk therapy will not resolve it. After trying many therapies myself, and training in different forms of therapy, I know what really works. I want to help you resolve your trauma and/or PTSD. It is not as difficult as many people think. I offer a 30 minute complimentary session for you to find how we can work together to heal and create the life you want. You can easily schedule on my website or email me.

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.

Lance Kair
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, LPC
Lance Kair is a licensed therapist specializing in anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, men's mental health, emotional regulation, and personal growth. He works with adults who are seeking more than symptom relief, helping them understand the underlying patterns that contribute to stress, depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, low self-esteem, and feelings of being stuck or disconnected.
He developed the YAM Approach (TM), a framework that helps clients develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and personal agency. Lance believes that lasting change occurs when individuals learn to understand what is actually happening, their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and nervous system responses, interactions, rather than simply trying to manage or suppress them.
Drawing from Somatic Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed care, Lance helps clients heal from past experiences, improve relationships, overcome self-defeating patterns, and build a stronger connection to their authentic selves. His work is especially effective for individuals struggling with anxiety, childhood trauma, relationship challenges, burnout, chronic stress, and questions of identity, purpose, and meaning.
Lance creates a compassionate, direct, and collaborative therapeutic environment where clients can safely explore difficult experiences while developing practical skills for everyday life. He views therapy as a process of empowerment, helping people move beyond survival mode and toward a life characterized by clarity, confidence, emotional flexibility, and meaningful connection.
Whether working with trauma, anxiety, relationship difficulties, or personal transformation, Lance's goal is to help clients cultivate lasting change by strengthening their ability to respond to life with intention, authenticity, and a deep sense of personal agency.

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).

Christopher Cannon
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, CAS, SEP
Trauma lives in the body, often showing up as anxiety, numbness, hypervigilance, or reactions that feel out of proportion. As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I help clients gently release survival energy that got stuck, without having to relive the worst moments in detail. I work with both single-incident trauma and complex PTSD rooted in childhood.
