Trauma and PTSD
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.

Trauma and PTSD
Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
If your nervous system feels like it’s running the show—overreacting, shutting down, or keeping you stuck—you’re not broken. You adapted.
I help people with trauma and PTSD understand why their system responds the way it does, and how to work with it instead of constantly fighting it. We focus on practical tools, real-life application, and building a sense of stability that actually holds up outside the therapy room.
No pressure to go faster than your system is ready for. But also no staying stuck forever.

Trauma and PTSD
Lindsey Costello
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
It isn't always clear-cut how your trauma may be affecting your current life and relationships, but it likely is, and we should talk about it. I want to create a sense of safety and easy honesty where we can talk about the things we don't want to think about. I am here for you and for the past you that needed someone to talk to.
