Inner World Counseling Services PLLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
This is the big one—your absolute core specialty. For Trauma and PTSD, we want this description to be the definitive statement of your clinical expertise. It should speak directly to the reality of living with a dysregulated nervous system, Complex PTSD (CPTSD), and the survival habits (like over-functioning and fawning) that people develop just to get through the day.
Here are a few options that firmly establish your expertise and highlight your evidence-based tools:
Option 1: Full-Spectrum & Root-Cause Focused (Recommended)
"I specialize in helping adults heal from the profound, lasting impacts of trauma, PTSD, and Complex PTSD (CPTSD). Trauma fundamentally alters how your nervous system perceives safety, often leaving you trapped in a state of high alert, struggling with intrusive thoughts, or dealing with a relentless inner critic. I look beyond surface-level symptoms to address the root causes of your distress. Utilizing gold-standard, evidence-based trauma modalities—including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)—I provide a highly specialized, structured, yet deeply compassionate space. Together, we will gently process painful past experiences, dismantle the survival habits that keep you stuck, and help your brain and body finally find a true, lasting sense of safety

Dr. Amy Karbasi
Psychologist, PsyD
I provide therapy for adults experiencing trauma and PTSD, including the effects of medical trauma, frightening health experiences, and other distressing or overwhelming events, including trauma from childhood, abuse, military/combat, and more. I use evidence-based, trauma-focused treatments such as Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, and more. These approaches can help you understand and work through trauma-related symptoms such as anxiety, avoidance, repetitive memories or nightmares, heightened alertness, and feeling unsafe or mistrusting of others. Treatment is individualized and may incorporate cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, exposure (gradually and safely approaching feared activities or triggers), and mind-body approaches to help you process difficult experiences and regain a greater sense of safety, confidence, and engagement in your life.

Fargo is North Dakota's largest city and a growing regional hub for healthcare, technology, and agriculture, with North Dakota State University bringing a significant student population and giving the city unusual economic and cultural vitality for its size. Cold, dark winters in one of the continental US's most extreme climates contribute meaningfully to seasonal affective disorder and depression, and geographic isolation from other major urban centers is a defining feature of life in the region. Sanford Health and Essentia Health both operate behavioral health programs in Fargo, and a private therapy sector serves the city's growing professional community. Common therapy concerns include seasonal depression, anxiety, student mental health at NDSU, relationship stress, and the particular challenges of mental health access in a northern plains city where winters are long and the nearest major metro is hundreds of miles away.
