PTSD/Trauma
David Essel, M.S., O.M.
Counselor/Therapist, Master's Degree Psychology, Ordained All Faiths Minister
When most people think of PTSD, they think of veterans returning from war. Which is very true.
Others might think of someone who had a near-drowning experience. And that will create PTSD as well.
But there are other events in life that can create ongoing PTSD, that we may not even recognize. Childhood trauma. Losing a pet. Or a job. or a relationship. Divorce trauma. Addiction trauma. Car accident trauma. The list is endless.
For the past 30 years, number one best-selling author, counselor, master Life Coach and minister David Essel has been helping people to understand the power of trauma, PTSD, and the stress of trying to live with either.

My specialty is working with adults who have experienced traum and are easily triggered throughout their day. They are often finding that it is difficult to manage their job, home, family and relationships without overreacting, overanalzying and their nervous system becoming dysregulated.

PTSD/Trauma
Rising Calm Center
Life Coach, MA, CMHC
I help individuals impacted by trauma and PTSD gently process overwhelming experiences that may still be affecting their thoughts, emotions, body, and sense of safety. Through a compassionate, trauma-informed, and faith-based approach, I support clients in understanding their nervous system responses, reducing symptoms of hypervigilance and distress, and safely working through painful memories at a tolerable pace. My desire is to help individuals experience healing, restoration, and renewed safety—both internally and in their relationship with God—so they can move forward with greater peace, stability, and freedom.

Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Helping you process, integrate and reduce the emotional impact of traumatic experiences in a safe and controlled environment is my goal. This may involve identifying and altering distressing thoughts and behaviors that have followed a traumatic experience. Working with you to gradually desensitize yourself to trauma-related triggers, can help reduce avoidance and dramatically decrease anxiety. My area of expertise is the treatment of trauma and PTSD. Working in residential rehabilitations for substance use disorders and then working at the VA laid the foundation for expertise in this area. I am trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Seeking Safety, Accelerated Resolution Therapy and Written Exposure Therapy.
