Jullee Capshaw
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LCMHC, NCC
I treat trauma and PTSD by first building a safe, trusting relationship with my clients. I believe in order to process trauma, people need to feel safe. Trauma impacts the ability to trust and feel safe in the present, even after the trauma has ended. Once the client feels safe and secure, I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy to reduce symptoms of hypervigilance, reduce flashbacks, reduce nightmares, and decrease physiological symptoms like increased heart rate, nausea, etc. Trauma does not have to define you.

Cecelia Myers
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC (North Carolina), LPC (Georgia), LPC (South Carolina)
Trauma is experienced differently for everyone. What is identified as trauma is also subjective. Trauma can actually change brain chemistry. Understanding how it affects the client now and why they are experiencing the symptoms can help in the process of coping and living with the trauma.

Kelsey Grant
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA
Trauma isn't just what happened — it's the parts of you that got stuck there. The part still scanning for danger. The one that shuts down when things get too close. The one that carries shame about reactions it couldn't control. I work with those parts directly using an integrated IFS and EMDR approach, so your nervous system can finally finish what it couldn't complete then.

Claire Robinson-Scalzi
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA, NCC
Whether recent, ongoing, or long past, our brains hold onto trauma to prevent the same thing from happening again. This means your traumatic memories might pop up with even the littlest reminders or maybe you don't even know why it keeps interrupting your days. I am here to support you through the symptoms and memories of your traumatic experiences so you can leave them behind in the past where they belong.

Lynette Cisneros
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LMHC
I tend to treat clients presenting with unresolved trauma relating to emotional & psychological wounds (unrelated to sexual violence or military service related trauma). These wounds may be related to upbringing and messaging learned in childhood that was toxic & now must be unlearned in order to not be repeated and/or continue to cause internal distress, external anger, resentment, shame or self blame. Make no mistake the messaging we learn in youth, as we are essentially 'sponges' at that time is powerful & can be deeply impactful. Sometimes we must examine and deconstruct these messages to move forward with more presence.

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.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Cierra Listermann
Psychologist, Ph.D., HSP-P
Trauma can affect the way you see yourself, relate to others, manage emotions, and experience the world around you. Whether your trauma stems from a single event or ongoing experiences, I help clients understand the lasting impact of trauma responses, process painful experiences, and challenge beliefs that may keep them feeling stuck. Therapy focuses on helping you regain a sense of safety, control, and connection with yourself.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
PTSD can affect your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and ability to feel safe even after the traumatic experience has ended. Symptoms such as intrusive memories, avoidance, hypervigilance, guilt, shame, and emotional distress are often the brain’s attempts to protect you after trauma. I specialize in evidence-based PTSD treatment to help clients process traumatic experiences, reduce the impact of symptoms, and regain a greater sense of freedom and control.
Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD)
Complex trauma often develops from repeated or ongoing experiences that impact a person’s sense of safety, identity, relationships, and emotional regulation. C-PTSD can affect how you see yourself, trust others, manage emotions, and navigate relationships. I help clients understand these patterns through a trauma-informed lens, process the impact of their experiences, and develop healthier beliefs, boundaries, and coping strategies.
