Stacy Koch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in trauma recovery and PTSD by helping you feel a sense of safety and security in your life again. I help trauma become integrated as part of your story while focusing on your strengths and resources so you can feel less damaged. I am trained in EMDR which uses a somatic approach focused on helping adaptively consolidate memories rather than having them stay there stored in the body.

Addressing the complex trauma allows opportunity fo rebuild strong relational foundations with self and others to strengthen overall functioning.

There are three main types of trauma: Acute, Chronic, or Complex. Acute trauma results from a single incident. Chronic trauma is repeated and prolonged such as domestic violence or abuse. Complex trauma is exposure to varied and multiple traumatic events, often of an invasive, interpersonal nature. Sometimes people experience post traumatic responses to adverse childhood experiences, a single event or living as marginalized identities in our society. That is, some people experience trauma response by dealing with recurring microaggressions, discrimination, bullying from individuals, communities and macro aggressions such as systemic oppression. We need to consider the impact traumatic experiences have on our mind, body and overall experience as a human navigating uncertain and challenging times.
