Raber Hamad
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, NCC, LPC
Trauma can make it feel like the past is still controlling your life. You might find yourself on edge, struggling to relax, or feeling disconnected from the people you love. Maybe certain situations trigger overwhelming emotions, or you shut down to avoid the pain. Even when things seem “fine” on the outside, you might feel stuck, exhausted, or like you're just trying to get through the day.
Healing isn’t about forcing yourself to “move on” or rehashing the past over and over. It’s about helping the parts of you that are still carrying pain feel safe, heard, and unburdened. Using gentle, research-backed approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS), we’ll work together to process what happened without reliving it, so you can finally feel more grounded, connected, and in control of your life.

Benjamin Smalley, TherapyKC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma isn’t just about what happened. It’s about how those experiences continue to live in your body, your reactions, and your relationships. You may find yourself feeling stuck, reactive, or disconnected without fully understanding why. Therapy provides a space to safely process those experiences and begin to resolve the patterns they’ve left behind, allowing for deeper healing and greater freedom.

Everyone has experienced trauma, but not everyone experiences PTSD. PTSD is, basically, when trauma gets "stuck" in us and forces its way into everyday life. Healing from trauma doesn't mean we forget the bad stuff. Healing is that the bad stuff gets bound in a book and put on the bookshelves of our life. It no longer intrudes into our present. We can take the book off the shelf and open it, remembering all the details, but then close it back up and put it back on the shelf, and it stays there.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I believe that most people who come to therapy, have some form of trauma in their life. Often people don't recognize the " little t traumas". I also work with people who have been through traumas such as sexual abuse and assault. I am able to use EFT with clients to help to clear the trauma from their body.
