Trauma and PTSD
Dr. David Liebert
Counselor/Therapist
Trauma can have a significant affect on both the body and the mind. Symptoms during the trauma are responses by the part of the brain focused on survival, while after experiencing trauma the symptoms may vary greatly. I use evidence-based behavioral health strategies to treat trauma (e.g., Posttraumatic Stress Disorder) such as cognitive behavioral therapy and exposure therapies.

Trauma and PTSD
Britt M Berglind
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, Ph.D
Successful treatment of trauma must include working through memories of the trauma in an experiential way after the therapist and patient have established a foundation of safety and coping skills. Psychodynamic treatment seeks to understand the context of traumatic memories using a working through process that helps the patient acquire improved self-understanding and ego strength.

Trauma and PTSD
Dr. David Amarel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My training & experience ranges from psychotherapy & assessment of adults, couples, & teens to counseling persons with AIDS & survivors of trauma with acute PTSD. Whether you seek to overcome a specific trauma or to break a chronic life pattern, to work toward achieving your purpose, I will meet you where you are at. Trauma has entered my work quite assertively over the past decade & I‘m always grateful & privileged to help support & bring more peace of mind to those suffering with PTSD as a consequence of trauma. We will work on the tools I’ve discovered through experience but more importantly we will invent tools together to weaken the grip of trauma & PTSD—as much as we can, to kick them to the curb.

Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC)
DSM defines trauma as: direct personal experience of an event that involves actual or threatened death or serious injury, or other threat to one’s physical integrity; or witnessing an event that involves death, injury, or a threat to the physical integrity of another person; or learning about unexpected or violent death, serious harm, or threat of death or injury experienced by a family member or other close associate. The person’s response to the event must involve intense fear, helplessness, or horror (or in children, the response must involve disorganized or agitated behavior). Other peritraumatic responses, such as anger, shame, and guilt, are also likely to increase the risk of posttraumatic reactions (occurring around the time of the traumas).
