PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Trauma affects people in many different ways and no one treatment approach can help everyone. I have experience using both psychodynamic (e.g., Supportive-Expressive Therapy) and cognitive-behavioral (e.g., Prolonged Exposure ) therapies for trauma. I have also published on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

PTSD/Trauma
Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have experience and training working with trauma, both what we call call big T and what we call little t. Trauma in general can overwhelm coping skills and can affect all levels of the body: Cognitive, psychological, emotional and physical functioning. The best and most effective trauma work is slow work, that rests on a foundation of safety and trust and I do believe that it is vitally important to not become retraumatized in therapy. This is careful, thoughtful work and like all therapy, each person's experience is unique and must be respected and integrated into each individual's own goals, temperament, coping skills and strengths.

PTSD/Trauma
Ann Aspnes
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
With over two decades of experience helping individuals heal from trauma and PTSD, I offer a structured, evidence-based space to help you reclaim your life after overwhelming experiences. My approach relies on gold-standard, scientifically validated protocols, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Written Exposure Therapy (WET). For complex or relational trauma, I integrate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Skills Training in Affective and Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR) to strengthen emotion regulation and rebuild interpersonal trust. Together, we safely process traumatic memories, reduce distressing flashbacks and hyperarousal, and equip you with the practical tools needed to feel grounded, safe, and back in control.

Sarah Jacques
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSWC-C
Trauma can leave deep marks—flashbacks, anxiety, or feeling “on edge” long after the event has passed. PTSD may make it hard to trust, relax, or feel safe in your own body. In therapy, I provide a calm and supportive space where you can process what happened at your own pace. Together, we’ll work on reducing triggers, rebuilding a sense of safety, and creating tools that help you move forward with strength and resilience.
