Trauma and PTSD
Christine Henry
Psychologist, Ph.D
Trauma doesn't necessarily have to be a single event. Instead, smaller, prolonged, or recurring stressful experiences can also be classified as traumatic. I work with clients who want to find ways to calm their nervous system so they aren't in a constant state of fight, flight, or freeze. They want to learn what their wants and needs are instead of being solely focused on making others around them happy. Learning to set boundaries is challenging but can significantly improve your relationships. Learning how to trust again may feel difficult, and therapy can be the first step in this process.

Courtney Nahow
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LPC
Trauma impacts our ability to see other people and the world as safe. It impacts how we view ourselves and how we relate to others. I work with clients to create a safe environment to process their experiences and heal from the past. We will work together to help you feel safer in your body through grounding skills and other somatic exercises. We can also look for unhelpful patterns you may be repeating in your life and help explore ways you can live the life you want to live.

Trauma and PTSD
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I have been working with individuals who have trauma and PTSD for over 20 years. For many years this was my main focus and as a evidence-based therapist I learned many different ways of treatment and developed a hybrid approach that I taught to other therapist for years. I start by helping you reduce your symptoms, then if your willing we re-process your trauma and help you look at it in a different way by identifying what is your "stuck point" and working to move that along. That in itself can also reduce remaining symptoms. With what is left, I help you move forward with your remaining symptoms and do what make you happy, despite of your symptoms. It may make you anxious to do something but at the end of the day, the joy you felt makes it worth it. Again, remember, you would be doing this with much less anxiety than when you started therapy. This a is a proven approach that has worked with so many individuals with trauma.
