I am fortunate to have been able to spend over 11 years working with victims of PTSD and early childhood trauma. I have had the pleasure of working with Multiple populations afflicted by this. This includes everyone from our military personnel after combat, to children in the foster care system

Catherine Quiring
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LCPC
I am skilled in helping people resolve trauma on a deep bodily level. IFS and EMDR are superb modalities to address trauma. You don't have to relive the trauma or delve into all the details. You just have to address what is still living in you day to day that feels unresolved.

Maria Barber
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I take a gentle, IFS‑informed approach to trauma and PTSD, helping you understand the protective parts of you that have worked hard to keep you safe. Trauma isn’t a sign of weakness—it’s the imprint of overwhelming experiences that your system adapted to in the best way it could. In therapy, we slow down and build enough safety for those protective parts to soften so we can access the wounded, burdened places that still carry fear, shame, or overwhelm.
IFS offers a compassionate, non‑pathologizing way to work with trauma. Instead of forcing change or revisiting memories before you’re ready, we honor the internal system that developed to help you survive. As you build more connection with your Self—your calm, grounded, wise center—your parts begin to trust that healing is possible. Over time, the intensity of triggers decreases, emotional reactivity settles, and you gain more clarity and choice in how you move through the world.
Whether trauma shows up in your relationships, your nervous system, or your sense of self, I provide a steady, attuned space to help you heal at a pace that feels safe and sustainable.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a psychologist specializing in the full range of trauma, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to reinforce a sense of safety, control, and worthiness. I draw upon the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how our nervous system is forced to adapt in extreme and overwhelming situations, and how those adaptations can be reinforced or blocked by our relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.
