PTSD/Trauma
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.

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).

Ms. Tania C. Henderson
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC, NCC, NMIT
Carrying an invisible backpack of old pain, quiet sadness, and relentless pressure costs far more energy than anyone around you realizes. To help you achieve deep, lasting release, our work combines EMDR and present-moment Gestalt somatic experiments—engaging both your brain and body where trauma actually lives. We help your nervous system reprocess stored memories so the past stops running your present, while gently tracking physical tension like a clenched jaw or braced shoulders to complete stuck survival responses. It is possible to finally put down the weight so you can move from merely surviving to feeling genuinely alive and grounded in your own skin.

Danielle Martinelli-Taylor
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, EMDRIA
EMDR and ART are specifically designed to work with the deep-seated trauma that is stored in the body. Trauma breaks, and these methods are designed for your brain to find the means to mend. The wounds from childhood abuse, trauma, or disruption of attachment lead the mind and body to act in old ways that can feel out of your control. Using these steps can help reprocess those old mentalities to engage with the people and situations in the present in a grounded and present way.

PTSD/Trauma
Glenn Permar
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Trauma and PTSD often show up as a nervous system that feels stuck between high alert and shutdown. Even when life looks stable, you may feel easily triggered, emotionally flooded, shut down, or constantly on edge. I work with adults to gently understand these patterns and build steadier responses without rushing the process. Therapy moves at a pace that supports safety and regulation, helping you regain clarity, control, and a grounded sense of self.

Michelle Fagan
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Trauma shakes the way you view yourself and the world. The first step in our work will be to create a sense of safety in yourself, your relationships, and your environment. If applicable, we may use holistic therapies such as IFS, EMDR, and somatic-based interventions to process your traumatic experiences. Lastly, we will work together to integrate all that you have learned and processed to create a more balanced life experience.
