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.

PTSD/Trauma
Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
When you are living with the aftermath of trauma or PTSD, the past never truly feels like it’s in the past. Whether you are navigating childhood neglect, relational trauma, or a specific life-shattering event, trauma remodels both the brain and the body—leaving you trapped in a state of hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or chronic anxiety. I specialize in helping individuals safely process these painful experiences and reclaim their lives. Moving beyond traditional talk therapy, I utilize advanced, evidence-based brain-body modalities like EMDR and Brainspotting to access and gently release trauma stored deep within the nervous system. By pairing these techniques with Internal Family Systems (IFS), we honor the protective parts of you that helped you survive, while finally healing the root wounds. You don't have to carry the weight of what happened to you forever; together, we can help your nervous system find genuine safety and lasting peace.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Trauma can leave lasting emotional, psychological, and physical effects that impact daily life, relationships, and self-worth. Whether you're dealing with the aftermath of a single event or complex, long-term trauma, I provide a safe, supportive space to begin healing. Using trauma-informed approaches such as EMDR, somatic awareness, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), we work to process painful memories, reduce symptoms of PTSD, and restore a sense of safety and control. Healing is possible—and you don’t have to carry it alone.
