PTSD/Trauma
Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Painful memory and trauma can be very difficult things to overcome. They can rewire our brain's reward system and highjack our sleep, appetite and balance. At times to correct this, we have to re-experience traumatic events, but live them differently this time around. You need support, kindness and understanding to go though this. Just do not go though it alone.

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.

Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Trauma isn't only about what happened. It's about how your body keeps bracing for it to happen again. I use Somatic Experiencing (Intermediate level, Somatic Experiencing International) and EMDR (EMDRIA-trained since 2019) to help your nervous system settle and let painful memories lose their grip, without forcing you to relive every detail. Many of my clients notice their trauma showing up most in close relationships, and that's where much of our healing work happens.

Dr. Thomas Ballas
Psychologist, PhD; PSYPACT
I am a clinical psychologist with specialized expertise in treating trauma and PTSD. My professional background includes working in hospital settings, private practice, and serving as a medical officer in the U.S. Army, where I gained significant experience addressing the profound impact of trauma and related mental health challenges. Through advanced training at leading military treatment facilities working with complex trauma, I have refined my skills in evidence-based approaches such as Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
These experiences have given me a deep understanding of the complexities of trauma and PTSD and a strong commitment to delivering compassionate, effective care. My goal is to help you process and heal from trauma, regain a sense of safety, and build a fulfilling and resilient life. Together, we will develop a personalized therapeutic plan tailored to your unique needs, ensuring you feel supported and empowered throughout your healing journey.
