PTSD/Trauma
Victoria Hicks
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC
There is this thing that has been weighing on you for years. While you have been able to keep it at bay for so many years it's now peeking its ugly head. You can't seem to manage relationships or even your job. Survival mode is all you know. You don't have to keep suffering. Relief and confidence can once again be you. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) utilizes the brain to help heal the pain you have dealt with all your life. Healing can finally be possible. EMDR is integrated into the therapy process through weekly sessions or through intensives to really work through those issues in a condensed capacity.

Mary Elizabeth Burns, MS, NCC, LPC
Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, LPC
I provide trauma therapy for adults and teens experiencing PTSD, complex trauma, and the lasting effects of emotional, psychological, or relational trauma, including narcissistic abuse. Trauma can show up as anxiety, emotional reactivity, disconnection, perfectionism, body image concerns, or feeling stuck in survival mode.
Using somatic therapy, nervous system regulation, breathwork, and evidence-based approaches such as CBT and DBT, I help clients process trauma safely, reduce symptoms, and restore a sense of control and self-trust. Trauma therapy supports healing that is paced, grounded, and focused on both the mind and body.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Post-traumatic stress isn’t just about flashbacks or nightmares — it’s what happens when overwhelming experiences don’t get to complete their cycle. It’s a nervous system stuck in survival mode, long after the threat is gone. You might feel hyperaware, disconnected, emotionally numb, or easily triggered by things you can’t always explain.
I work with PTSD through a relational, trauma-informed lens that honors the intelligence of your coping strategies while helping you build new experiences of safety, connection, and choice. We don’t rush. We don’t retraumatize. We work gently, at your pace, with deep respect for the ways your body and mind have protected you.
Healing isn’t about forgetting what happened — it’s about reclaiming your sense of self outside of what happened. Together, we’ll create space for your story, your voice, and your right to feel fully alive again.
