Therapist, LPC, Psychoanalyst
Trauma disorders are characterized by painful repetitions in the form of symptoms, for example a general bodily feeling of uneasiness or a painful memory. Something of the trauma you experienced seems to have taken up residence in your mind. Treating trauma is a process that begins by speaking freely, without an agenda. This may lead to a new form of freedom from the event and a way forward into a life worth living.

Jerleen Sinkes
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
In working with trauma, my priority is to establish a space of safety and trust, where the story of your trauma is met with the utmost respect and care. I understand that trauma affects not just the mind, but the body and spirit as well. Our journey together involves gently uncovering and working through the painful memories and feelings at a pace that feels manageable for you. My goal is to help you regain a sense of control and self-worth, processing the trauma so that it becomes a part of your story without defining it. Healing from trauma is possible, and I am here to support you through every step of this transformative journey.

Pamela Silsby-Sharkey
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, Coach
Polyvagal informed therapy helps to regulate the nervous system and helps us relearn how to co-regulate with others again. Trauma occurs whenever our nervoius systems are overwhelmed and go into fight, flight, or freeze. Ideally we shift out of dorsal vagal and into ventral vagal. Brainspotting, Tapping, EMDR, and IFS are wonderful modalities for treating trauma. Trauma is pervasive, it's everywhere. It shows up as big "T" traumas and as little "t" traumas. Creating a safe place to heal from is the priority so that we can begin to heal.
