Carmalyn Lashley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As an EMDR trained therapist, I use a research-backed therapy approach that has been shown to be effective in treating trauma and PTSD. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and it works by helping the brain reprocess traumatic memories in a safe and controlled environment. During an EMDR session, I guide my clients through a structured process that involves recalling traumatic memories while simultaneously using bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, tapping, or auditory tones). This helps to reduce the intensity of the traumatic memory and allows the brain to process it in a way that is less distressing. With continued EMDR therapy, clients often report a reduction in PTSD symptoms, anxiety, and depression. My goal as an EMDR therapist is to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can work through their trauma and move towards healing and recovery.

Dr. Sarah Pouliot
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Trauma did not wait for consent; Therapy must. While many different therapeutic modalities exist for the treatment of trauma and PTSD, what remains essential is the thoughtful and careful negotiation of pacing between therapist and client such that the therapeutic process feels as manageable and tolerable as possible. Given that trauma so often results from harmful relational dynamics that force agendas or remove personal agency, trauma therapy must offer a healing space that does not seek to rush, pressure, or impinge. Rather, and in my professional opinion, it's imperative that trauma therapy respect the client's experience of what feels manageable at any given moment in therapeutic time and space, working to avoid unnecessary setback and potential retraumatization. I feel this is best achieved through the development of a reliable therapeutic rapport and relationship that functions to carefully and mindfully co-monitor and co-negotiate the everchanging and expanding dynamics between therapist and client. Put another way, your therapy should not be forced into someone else's timeframe or methodology; it should be allowed to develop in step with your specific history, unique needs, and comfort level. Please refer to my Trauma Blog on my website (pouliotpsychologicalservices.com) for more information on my approach to the treatment of trauma.

Lee Chase
Psychologist, Ph.D.
The impact of a single, traumatic event or experiencing an environment that provides a chronic sense of danger can have a debilitating effect on how we view the world and how we function in it. Through therapy, we'll identify how your experiences of trauma are manifested in your body and thoughts, and work on improving upon your awareness of triggers and improving coping behaviors.
