Trauma and PTSD
Meghan Luse
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCPC
Post-traumatic stress can make the world feel exhausting and unpredictable. Your brain and body have adapted to survive, which can leave you feeling stuck in "fight or flight" mode or entirely shut down. Our work centers on helping your nervous system unlearn these survival responses. We focus on collaborative, paced steps to process the emotional weight of your experiences, helping you build a life that feels safe and manageable.

Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Experiences of trauma can have lasting effects on how you feel in your body, relationships, and daily life, often showing up as anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or difficulty feeling safe. I support clients in gently processing traumatic experiences at a pace that feels safe and manageable, without pressure to relive or disclose more than you are ready for. In our work together, we focus on building emotional safety, strengthening coping skills, and understanding how past experiences may be impacting your present. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, connected, and empowered as you move toward healing and reclaiming a sense of stability and control in your life.

Trauma and PTSD
New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Treating trauma and PTSD requires a comprehensive and compassionate approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment. Drawing from evidence-based therapies such as cognitive processing therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic experiencing, I work with clients to process and integrate traumatic memories in a supportive therapeutic environment. Through psychoeducation, skill-building, and experiential techniques, I help clients regain a sense of control over their lives while addressing symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, and avoidance. My specialized expertise enables me to tailor treatment to each individual's unique needs, fostering healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope for the future.

Trauma and PTSD
The Caruso Wellness Center PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, MART, MA, ALMFT
Trauma and PTSD can leave individuals feeling unsafe in their own bodies, disconnected from others, and stuck in patterns of fear, hypervigilance, or emotional numbness. I provide trauma-informed counseling grounded in Adlerian Psychology and informed by polyvagal theory, integrating an understanding of meaning, belonging, and nervous system regulation. From an Adlerian perspective, we explore how early experiences shape beliefs about safety, worth, and connection, while also building courage and encouragement toward healing and growth. Using a polyvagal-informed lens, we focus on helping your nervous system move from survival states into greater regulation, safety, and connection.
I have a particular focus and training on religious trauma, recognizing the deep pain that can result from harmful spiritual environments, coercive belief systems, or experiences of rejection within faith communities. In this work, I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where your story can be honored, your experiences validated, and your sense of self carefully restored. Together, we work toward reclaiming safety, rebuilding trust, and integrating mind, body, and meaning in a way that supports long-term healing and resilience.
