Jesika Doty - Amphora Mental Health Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Being widowed young in a violent accident, has helped shape my work with individuals suffering from trauma and PTSD. I work with you on addressing the emotional issues that arise from trauma and PTSD and integrate several modalities based on what speaks to you and also integrate somatic processing to help facilitate change within the nervous system. I also integrate the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) which works with your vagus nerve through sound vibrations that activate the auditory neural network including the branch of the vagus nerve - the ramus auricular. As the vagus nerve is stimulated, signals are sent to the nervous system telling it to relax and let go of tension and thus improving how your brain and body functions. We can't necessarily control external situations or obstacles that faces us in any given moment, but we can change our responses to them. This is part of the core work with those that suffer from trauma and PTSD.

Eve Palmatier
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I am trained in TF-CBT, and specialize in supporting clients through their trauma work. When someone is a survivor of trauma they continue to live with a nervous system which is hardwired to help them survive in unsafe conditions. This likely is what kept them alive and able to make it to the present day, but it's a great inconvenience to be in Survival Mode when trying to get through daily life. It also can mean that a person is well aware of how NOT to live a healthy life, but has had little to no guidance on what to do in order to build the kind of life they'd like. Healing from trauma can feel impossible, but it is entirely doable. I work to support people in cleaning out those old emotional wounds, so they can finally heal properly and begin living the life they want for themselves. It's hard, and it's possible.

Haven Psychology Group

Trauma can continue to affect emotions, relationships, beliefs, behavior, and the body long after an experience has ended. Our psychologists provide evidence-based, appropriately paced treatment to help clients understand trauma-related patterns, reduce avoidance and distress, strengthen coping, and move toward greater freedom in everyday life.

Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma changes you. Not because you are weak, but because what happened to you was real, and your mind and body did exactly what they were designed to do to keep you alive. The problem is that sometimes those survival responses do not turn off when the danger is gone. And you find yourself stuck, hypervigilant, triggered by things that should feel ordinary, carrying a weight that nobody around you can quite see.
That is not a character flaw. That is trauma. And it is treatable.
At CCW International, trauma is at the core of what we do. It is the reason this practice exists. Our founder, a U.S. Army veteran and licensed clinical psychologist, built CCW International specifically to serve those who have been through the kinds of experiences that leave marks, the ones that do not show up on an X-ray but shape every single day.
We specialize in trauma recovery for women, veterans, and military families, bringing together evidence-based approaches, deep cultural competence, and genuine lived understanding of what it means to survive something hard and still have to show up for your life.
Whether your trauma came from combat, sexual assault, childhood experiences, medical trauma, loss, or any of the countless other ways life can wound us, you deserve care that actually understands what you have been through.
You survived it. Now let us help you heal from it.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
Bad things happen to us all. If they are so frightening and life-threatening that we have nightmares about them, flashbacks to them, and find ourselves avoiding anything that reminds us of them such that our lives become smaller and smaller, then it's time to deal with the trauma and the stress we feel after the trauma (post-traumatic stress). There are ways to lessen the pain of the memory and I can help you do that.
