Healing the Roots of Trauma
Whether you have experienced a single overwhelming event or years of chronic stress (complex trauma), we provide a safe, regulated environment where you can finally begin to process and release the weight of the past.
Our Specialized Trauma Tools
Traditional talk therapy can sometimes reach a plateau when it comes to trauma. That is why we utilize advanced, "bottom-up" neurological approaches that work directly with the brain’s survival centers:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): A gold-standard treatment that helps the brain "reprocess" traumatic memories so they no longer trigger intense emotional or physical pain.
Brainspotting: A powerful method that uses your field of vision to find where trauma is held in the subcortical brain, allowing for deep emotional release and healing.
DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): Focuses on emotional regulation and distress tolerance, giving you the skills to manage "triggers" in your daily life.
Youth-Focused Trauma Care (Ages 10+): We use specialized interactive software to help children and teens express and process difficult experiences in a way that feels safe and manageable.
Our Collaborative Healing Process
We never rush the trauma process. You are the leader of your journey, and we are your expert guides.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, can't relax, or struggle to trust people, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats trauma and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
**Healing Trauma and PTSD Through Faith and Professional Expertise**
Trauma and PTSD can leave deep emotional scars, affecting every aspect of your life—your relationships, sense of safety, and ability to experience peace. The road to healing can feel daunting, but with the right support, it’s possible to find freedom and restoration. As a therapist with specialized training in trauma and PTSD, I use proven therapeutic methods to help you process past wounds, break free from the grip of painful memories, and reclaim your life.
What makes my approach unique is the integration of your Christian faith into the healing journey. Trauma can often shake our sense of identity and trust, even in God. Together, we will not only address the emotional and psychological effects of trauma but also nurture your spiritual connection, grounding your recovery in God’s love, grace, and promises. Through prayer, scripture, and a faith-based perspective, you’ll discover tools to rebuild trust, find strength, and embrace hope.
Healing from trauma doesn’t mean forgetting the past—it means finding a way to move forward with renewed purpose and faith. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. Let’s work together to create a life where peace, joy, and the assurance of God’s presence replace the shadows of pain and fear.

Mike Kosim
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I am here to tell you that you are enough. I can help you through EMDR and family-of-origin work to help uncover and rebuild the life patterns that may not be serving you well. Sometimes these patterns show up as Anxiety. Sometimes these patterns show up as depression. Sometimes you know or suspect you have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Does it feel like sometimes you just keep looking for words describing what's wrong with you?
Diagnoses are not you. You're not broken. I can help you build the life you want to lead.

Dr. Adam Sattler
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I work with adults whose past experiences continue to affect their sense of safety, reactions to stress, or relationships. For PTSD, I offer Written Exposure Therapy (WET), a brief, evidence-based treatment that uses structured writing during sessions and does not require homework between appointments. We’ll discuss whether this approach fits your symptoms and treatment goals.

Tahmi Perzichilli
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LADC
I primarily use EMDR therapy, and incorporate other cognitive and somatic interventions to address trauma(s), and trauma-related symptoms (depression, anxiety, and other). The approach views trauma as any "undigested" experience, and works to engage the brains natural healing mechanisms. Overall, therapy is focused on emotional & physical safety; trustworthiness & transparency; collaboration & mutuality; and empowerment & choice.

Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
I have specialized training in working with folks who have experienced traumas of all kinds. Whether that trauma was one big event, several events, or even small acute traumas that impact our daily lives, your experience is valid and real. In working with trauma, I prioritize the emotional safety of the client, and we will go at your own pace. From there, my goal is to help trauma survivors learn how to move forward in life relating to their trauma stories in a new way that no longer feels as all-consuming as it once did.

Peter Hoistad
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, LADC
This is the diagnosis that I have the most experience working with. I prefer meeting a client where they are at and what level of comfortability they are with sharing their traumatic experiences. If someone doesn't want to relive the past over and over again, then we can focus on the current and future to see how we can work together to lower the symptoms.
