Jarrett Langfitt
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CADC
Trauma can leave a psychological wound that impacts every aspect of life. Much like physical wounds, psychological injuries sometimes require treatment and attention in order to heal. When psychological injuries from trauma are ignored or left untreated, the symptoms can persist, or worse, they can intensify. Sometimes trauma symptoms stem from is a single event, and sometimes they are the result of a series of events that occurs over a long period of time. If you are having mental, emotional, or spiritual difficulties in the aftermath of traumatic experience(s), you may benefit from specialized trauma-focused treatment. Trauma therapy offers a safe space for survivors to process their experiences, confront painful memories, and rebuild a sense of agency and control over their lives.
If you are struggling with the impact of trauma, please reach out to me today to discuss how therapy can help you take back your life.

Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Experiencing trauma/PTSD can really affect people with addictions, relationship problems, or depression. For example, someone who's been through a tough experience might start using drugs or alcohol to cope. Trauma/PTSD can also make relationships harder and can make depression worse. To help someone dealing with this concern, I'd create a caring environment, listen to them, and suggest healthy ways to cope.

Maggie Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, EMDR Certified, NCC
Trauma is not about an event, but about the impact it has on you. It is a wound of the body and mind that hasn't healed or keeps getting reopened when you are triggered. You may have suffered a single event trauma (like a car accident, assault, or death of a loved one) or a series of painful incidents (like being abused as a child or as an adult or longstanding struggles in your academic or career endeavors or friendships). I can help you process what happened and stop feeling haunted or stuck by your past and live more fully and confidently in your present. In addition to regular talk therapy, I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an effective and well-researched treatment for PTSD and trauma, as well as somatic movement, expressive arts, Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment, and attachment-focused therapies to help my clients heal and transform.
