Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Trauma has a way of rewriting your story without your permission. Even when you tell yourself you’ve moved past it, memories can suddenly feel overwhelming, trust becomes harder, and your mind and body stay on high alert. Dr. Shields understands how exhausting and isolating this experience can be. She provides compassionate, specialized support grounded in highly effective trauma-specific approaches, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). With care, empathy, and patience, she’ll help you rebuild your sense of safety, regain your clarity, and reclaim your story—on your own terms.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma work cannot work solely on a verbal level-for years, I worked in verbal therapy alone and observed people coming to better understandings of what happened to them and how it left marks even in the present day while continuing to suffer. But once I integrated EMDR and Deep Brain Reorienting into my work with people with trauma, I began to see true shifts in nervous system functioning and healing that was core deep and not just simply coping, bringing true and lasting relief from the pain of the past.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, Ph.D, LCSW-C,DCSW
You are the only one who can determine what felt traumatizing to you. We can work together to understand the trauma, and find ways to facilitate your healing. Your healing is not dependent on those who have harmed you. Apologies/acknowledgement may never come. But! You can heal. Post traumatic stress does not have to e a life sentence. You can make the difference in your own life. It may not seem possible now - but it is. I'd like to help.

Stacy Brumage
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCP, LCPC
Trauma can continue to affect your nervous system long after an experience has ended, showing up as hypervigilance, triggers, anxiety, avoidance, or feeling disconnected from yourself. I use trauma-focused approaches, including EMDR, to help clients process painful experiences and develop a greater sense of safety and stability.

Traumatic experiences can affect every part of our lives, including how we interact with others and how we interact with the world. It can be difficult to trust and feel safe. Together we can build a safe space for you to explore your triggers and emotions and learn how to manage them as they come up. By learning how to manage our thoughts and behaviors, we can make a change for the better.
