Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma is relative to the individual. Many clients come in not even realizing that what they’re experiencing is connected to earlier wounding—and that awareness alone can be a powerful starting point.
I work with both what is often referred to as “little t” trauma—ongoing relational wounding—and “Big T” trauma, such as abuse, neglect, loss, or other significant life events. Whether these experiences are obvious or more subtle, they can shape how you see yourself, relate to others, and respond to stress.
Many of the challenges clients face—such as difficulty setting boundaries, emotional overwhelm, or feeling stuck in patterns that don’t seem to change—are often rooted in these earlier experiences.
Our work focuses on helping you understand these patterns with greater clarity while also developing the ability to regulate your nervous system. I incorporate both insight-based and somatic approaches to support you in creating new, more grounded and adaptive ways of responding.
The goal is not just to cope—but to move toward a greater sense of freedom, stability, and self-trust.

Jess Clodfelter
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCMHC, LPC, NCC, CCTP-II
Not all trauma looks like one big, obvious event. A lot of the time, it’s the repeated experiences that quietly shape how you see yourself, your relationships, and what feels safe. If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly scanning for what could go wrong, shutting down when things get overwhelming, or stuck in relationship patterns you know aren’t working but can’t seem to break — that’s not random, and it’s not a personal failure. I specialize in working with complex PTSD (CPTSD) and attachment trauma, helping clients untangle patterns like hypervigilance, emotional shutdown, people-pleasing, and relationship cycles that keep repeating.
As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-II), my work is grounded in understanding how trauma lives in both the mind and body — and how to shift those patterns without shaming or overwhelming you. We go at a pace that feels manageable while still creating real change, so you’re not just understanding your patterns, you’re actually starting to move differently in your life.

New Leaf Counseling and Wellness
Psychologist
Treating trauma and PTSD requires a comprehensive and compassionate approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment. Drawing from evidence-based therapies such as cognitive processing therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic experiencing, I work with clients to process and integrate traumatic memories in a supportive therapeutic environment. Through psychoeducation, skill-building, and experiential techniques, I help clients regain a sense of control over their lives while addressing symptoms such as hypervigilance, flashbacks, and avoidance. My specialized expertise enables me to tailor treatment to each individual's unique needs, fostering healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope for the future.
