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.

Mary Mesiha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
If you’ve experienced trauma, it can leave a lasting impact—sometimes in ways that are hard to put into words. You might feel anxious, disconnected, or easily overwhelmed, even when things seem “fine” on the outside.
In therapy, we’ll create a safe and supportive space where you can begin to make sense of your experiences at your own pace. Together, we’ll focus on helping you feel more grounded, regain a sense of stability, and move toward healing in a way that feels manageable and respectful of your process.

Jenelle N. Ashley
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, MCAP, CCTP
Trauma can leave you feeling disconnected, on edge, or unsure why certain emotions or reactions show up so strongly. You may notice patterns like shutting down, feeling overwhelmed, or avoiding situations that once felt easy. These responses aren’t flaws, they’re learned forms of protection that made sense at the time.
In therapy, we work together to understand these patterns with clarity and compassion. My approach is steady, supportive, and paced to your comfort. We focus on helping you feel more grounded in your body, more present in your daily life, and more connected to yourself. You don’t have to revisit every detail of the past; instead, we explore how those experiences show up now and build healthier ways to respond.
Healing is possible, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Amanda Ezell
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (AL & GA), LMHC (FL), NCC, BC-TMH
Trauma can continue affecting the present long after an experience has ended, sometimes through hypervigilance, avoidance, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, disconnection, or difficulty feeling safe. I provide trauma-informed therapy that respects your pace and individual experiences. Our work may include understanding trauma responses, recognizing triggers and patterns, developing regulation skills, and helping you regain a greater sense of agency in your life.
