Counselor/Therapist, M.Div., M.A., LPC
Do you find yourself on edge, looking over your shoulder, struggling in relationship and just not sure why life is so hard? Complex trauma, which may have been something so subtle but happened again and again in your childhood, can leave you feeling unsure about yourself, often doubting and second guessing yourself. This is because the way your parents attuned to you may not have been meeting what you needed. Now as an adult you find yourself struggling in relationships and can't quite figure out what's wrong. It is them? Is it me? I'd guess your'e wondering why so many people around you are taking advantage of you. I want you to know this is not your fault, you did not deserve this, and you do not need to keep living in the cycle of broken relationships. You CAN heal. You CAN come to a place where you are valued, by yourself and by others. Together we can work to identify where you have been hurt. To help release any burdens you continue to carry and to bring in the qualities you really want to be living with. You can have freedom from your past and step boldly into your future. You can reclaim your life. You have a power inside that will guide you to deeper healing. I can help you tap into that power. I can support you through the healing journey. You can take ownership of your life.

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.

Megan Ramos
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
"Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness" -Peter Levine. I love this quote. I support people to bring a sense of larger presence and compassion to body memories that are held inside as trauma. Through this, what we hold inside can unwind and digest, allowing the clouds to part and our true self to shine through. I have training in somatic therapy, EMDR, and Somatic Experiencing and bring these modalities in when working with Trauma and PTSD.

Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC
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.
