Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
My understanding of trauma has shifted along with international research on why some events create lasting challenging effects for some people but not for others. Our collective awareness has gone from thinking, “What's wrong with you?” to asking, “What happened to you?” and now focusing on, “Who was there for you?”
A simple retelling of a traumatic experience does not always deeply heal the one who suffers. While it can feel good to be truly heard, especially for those who have never told it before and need real empathy, repeatedly telling the story does not often change the subconscious beliefs implanted during the trauma or the nervous system’s reactivity.
Instead, we build a new relationship with a traumatic experience by re-approaching the memory and inviting a shift. Often the shift is around “Who could have been there for you.” While in factual reality, no one may have stopped the trauma, we can access another perspective that enables our bodies, hearts, and minds to feel supported. We can do this many ways: through role play, through calling in ancestors or pop stars or our highest selves, or by letting our wise adult-self take over the situation. Or we may use drawing materials or nature to discover a new part of the experience we didn’t realize before.
I've taken many trainings in the origins and effects of trauma and PTSD, and I find working with the nervous system and imaginal realm (creative liminal space) highly effective. I'm not a licensed mental health therapist; I'm a spiritual life coach, so my work is integrative. I offer: calm spaciousness & empathy as you talk, embodied processing options (drawing, clay work, self soothing), and inner parts work (mediated inner dialogue or a “committee of voices,” similar to Soulwork or Internal Family Systems).
Then we make a plan to implement the new shift into everyday life.

PTSD/Trauma
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.
