Trauma and PTSD
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).

Trauma and PTSD
Ruth Weinberg
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Have you ever had an intense emotional and physical reaction to something even though it doesn't logically seem threatening? Do you experience anxiety about something despite a feeling that it shouldn't bother you? Are you a survivor of a violent incident, car accident, medical trauma, physical or sexual abuse? These painful experiences require courage and compassion to heal from. The treatment of trauma requires going beyond talk therapy and accessing the parts of our brain that are concerned with keeping us safe. My extensive experience and training in trauma work gives me the understanding necessary to help clients move through the places in their brain and body where trauma is held, process through it, release it and leave it in the past. Using EMDR, mindfulness and IFS can be central to this process.

There are the events that hurt people, and then the aftermath of those events that can go on much longer than the events, themselves. Together, we work at a pace that feels safe to you so you can feel more empowered.

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.
