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.

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.

Dr. Shannon Coleman
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma can continue to affect your emotions, relationships, sense of safety, and responses to everyday situations long after an event has occurred. I use evidence-based trauma treatments, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE), to help clients process traumatic experiences and reduce PTSD symptoms. I served as the director of a PTSD clinic at the VA for many years and was a national Prolonged Exposure trainer through the National Center for PTSD.
