Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In assisting patients struggling with trauma and PTSD, I offer a compassionate and supportive environment to explore their experiences. Through therapy, we address the impact of trauma on their emotions, behaviors, and relationships. I provide education about trauma responses and coping mechanisms, helping them develop strategies to manage symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance. Together, we work towards processing and integrating their traumatic experiences, fostering healing, resilience, and a sense of empowerment. Ongoing support and therapy aim to facilitate their journey towards recovery and improved well-being.
