Michael Andrew Brennan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma can live on in the nervous system—through hypervigilance, shutdown, emotional reactivity, numbness, or disconnection. Therapy can help you process what happened and build safety within yourself and your relationships. We’ll move gently and collaboratively, with respect for your pace and your story.

Allyson Stephens
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Trauma, generational trauma, and PTSD can be hard issues to overcome. I am someone who has personally healed from past trauma. I can help you heal from your childhood trauma or a traumatic experience you just had. I use IFS, EMDR, Somatic Therapy, CBT, and DBT for this issue.

Shannon Kossick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCADC
Trauma isn't just what happened. It's what your body and nervous system have been carrying since. I use EMDR to help you process traumatic memories without having to relive them in detail, IFS to understand the protective parts that formed in response, and somatic work to help your body find safety again. Healing is possible and it starts at your pace.

Jesika Doty - Amphora Mental Health Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Being widowed young in a violent accident, has helped shape my work with individuals suffering from trauma and PTSD. I work with you on addressing the emotional issues that arise from trauma and PTSD and integrate several modalities based on what speaks to you and also integrate somatic processing to help facilitate change within the nervous system. I also integrate the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) which works with your vagus nerve through sound vibrations that activate the auditory neural network including the branch of the vagus nerve - the ramus auricular. As the vagus nerve is stimulated, signals are sent to the nervous system telling it to relax and let go of tension and thus improving how your brain and body functions. We can't necessarily control external situations or obstacles that faces us in any given moment, but we can change our responses to them. This is part of the core work with those that suffer from trauma and PTSD.

Reno's rapid growth — driven by a wave of tech and logistics companies relocating from California, anchored by facilities from Tesla, Apple, and Amazon — has transformed a gambling-and-entertainment city into a more economically diverse metro, and its therapy community is evolving to serve both the long-established casino workforce and a growing population of tech transplants. The city's proximity to the Sierra Nevada and outdoor recreation culture attracts a younger, health-conscious demographic who are generally comfortable seeking therapy, while the older gaming-industry workforce may carry greater stigma around help-seeking. Renown Health and the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private therapy community. Reno's significant homeless population and substance use challenges mean therapists specializing in co-occurring disorders serve an especially important community role.
