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.

Trauma occurs when someone experiences one or more events that threaten their physical, mental and/or emotional well-being. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that is a direct consequence of experiencing trauma and can include flashbacks, nightmares, intrusive thoughts, avoidance of reminders of the trauma and mood disturbances. PTSD can be treated in a variety of ways including medication, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Exposure Therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping), and mindfulness practices.

Renee Woodall
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Trauma can leave you feeling stuck, on edge, or disconnected from yourself and others. Even experiences from years ago can continue to affect your emotions, relationships, and sense of safety. Using EMDR and a warm, steady approach, I help clients process painful memories and reduce the emotional intensity of the past so you can feel more settled, supported, and present in your life today.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals experiencing trauma and PTSD by providing a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space to process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable. Trauma can impact thoughts, emotions, relationships, and the sense of safety in the world, and may show up as anxiety, hypervigilance, intrusive memories, or emotional numbing. In therapy, I use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help identify and work through unhelpful beliefs related to the trauma, along with supporting coping skills and emotional regulation. The focus is on reducing the ongoing impact of trauma, strengthening resilience, and helping you move forward with a greater sense of safety, control, and self-understanding.
