Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Narcissistic abuse and coercive control cause real, clinically significant trauma. Many of the mothers I work with have never been told this — they've been treated for anxiety or depression without anyone naming the source as relational trauma. The symptoms are real: intrusive thoughts, hypervigilance, emotional flashbacks, difficulty trusting others, avoidance of anything that triggers memories of the relationship. Complex PTSD, which develops from prolonged exposure to psychological abuse rather than a single traumatic event, is especially common in survivors of narcissistic relationships. As a licensed psychologist with 30 years of clinical experience and advanced training in trauma, post-separation abuse, and narcissistic abuse recovery, I provide trauma-informed therapy specifically designed for mothers healing from relational trauma and complex PTSD. My approach addresses the trauma at its roots — not just the symptoms — using evidence-based methods tailored to the specific trauma patterns that narcissistic and emotionally abusive relationships create.

Dr. Sarah Pouliot
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Trauma did not wait for consent; Therapy must. While many different therapeutic modalities exist for the treatment of trauma and PTSD, what remains essential is the thoughtful and careful negotiation of pacing between therapist and client such that the therapeutic process feels as manageable and tolerable as possible. Given that trauma so often results from harmful relational dynamics that force agendas or remove personal agency, trauma therapy must offer a healing space that does not seek to rush, pressure, or impinge. Rather, and in my professional opinion, it's imperative that trauma therapy respect the client's experience of what feels manageable at any given moment in therapeutic time and space, working to avoid unnecessary setback and potential retraumatization. I feel this is best achieved through the development of a reliable therapeutic rapport and relationship that functions to carefully and mindfully co-monitor and co-negotiate the everchanging and expanding dynamics between therapist and client. Put another way, your therapy should not be forced into someone else's timeframe or methodology; it should be allowed to develop in step with your specific history, unique needs, and comfort level. Please refer to my Trauma Blog on my website (pouliotpsychologicalservices.com) for more information on my approach to the treatment of trauma.

Weston Pew
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LCPC
Trauma can deeply affect every aspect of your life, leaving you feeling disconnected, on edge, or numb. It robs you of trust in yourself and creates a sense of fear or stagnation, cutting you off from your life force. Trauma recovery is about retrieval, integration, and circulation, reversing the "frozen" energy back into a vibrant, life-affirming force. My holistic, integrative approach to trauma recovery includes Narrative Therapy to reshape your story, Internal Family Systems (IFS) to engage with parts of yourself affected by trauma, Somatic Inquiry to connect mind and body, and Spiritual/Existential Inquiry to explore the deeper meanings of your experiences. Together, we will work to reclaim your identity, heal internal conflicts, release physical tension, and foster resilience, helping you navigate trauma and emerge stronger, more connected, and ready for post-traumatic growth. Begin your journey of healing by booking a free consultation today.

Kevin Brown, Therapy in Mindfulness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
One way to understand trauma is as 'too much, too fast' or 'too little, for too long.' Trauma often leaves us with experiences that feel too overwhelming to fully process, so we find ways—consciously or unconsciously—to avoid the pain. We may reshape our lives around that avoidance, not realizing how much it’s influencing us. Trauma can show up in many ways: anxiety, fear, emotional shutdown, or patterns we struggle to change. A somatic approach to healing trauma focuses on resourcing the nervous system, creating the safety needed to turn toward the pain in a regulated way, and processing the emotions and beliefs that have formed around it. This is the work of integration—the path to reclaiming yourself, so your life is no longer defined by what happened to you, but by how you choose to live moving forward.
