Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
You feel defined by your past. The lingering effects of physical or emotional trauma cast a constant shadow on your daily experience. Your relationships, career and enjoyment of life are all minimized by this trauma. It seems you will always be limited by the past. Yet, you want more than this out of your life.
Using guided meditation and hypnotherapy, I help you heal your past trauma and move beyond how it limits your life experience. We work together to find a path forward, move beyond your traumatic past, and tap into your own intuition to find new more fulfilling and productive ways to be in your life.
Contact me to schedule a complimentary 15-minuyte information session to learn more about Depth Hypnosis counseling sessions and how you can move beyond the trauma of your past into a more fulfilling, productive and enjoyable experience of life.

Kevin J. Drab
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified EMDR Therapist, Certified Advanced Alcohol & Drug Counsel
My approach is grounded in empathy, compassion, and a deep understanding of the very personal experiences of PTSD and Complex Trauma. I use evidence-based therapies with you such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), EMDR, and trauma-informed therapy to help you manage and resolve the symptoms of PTSD, including flashbacks, anxiety, and avoidance behaviors. Following the current research into approaches which do and do not work, I do not use exposure approaches, and do not require a client to go through the details of their trauma. Working through Traumas, is challenging, but with motivation and commitment recovery is very possible.

PTSD/Trauma
Gabrielle A. Morreale / Recovered and Restored
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A. LPC.
Research shows that nearly 69% of women report experiencing some form of trauma in their lifetime, and approximately one in four individuals with eating disorders also experience symptoms of complex PTSD. In fact, PTSD is one of the most common co-occurring conditions alongside eating disorders. Trauma can significantly intensify eating disorder behaviors, often as the nervous system attempts to cope with overwhelming or unresolved experiences.
At Recovered & Restored, we understand that healing from both trauma and an eating disorder is courageous work. We also want you to know clearly: what happened to you was not your fault. Recovery may feel daunting at times, but it is deeply worthwhile. Our clinicians move at a pace that feels safe and manageable for each client, honoring your story and your readiness. We utilize a trauma-informed framework and draw from integrative, evidence-based modalities to support lasting healing.
Our Trauma-Informed Approach
Because trauma and eating disorders are so often interconnected, we prioritize trauma-informed care in all that we do. This approach recognizes the impact of trauma and seeks to create an environment that fosters restoration rather than re-traumatization.
Our work is grounded in five core principles:
Safety – Creating emotional and physical spaces where you feel secure.
Choice – Respecting your autonomy and honoring your voice in treatment.
Collaboration – Working together as partners in your recovery.
Trustworthiness – Maintaining transparency and consistency in care.
Empowerment – Supporting you in reclaiming your strength and resilience.
You deserve healing that feels steady, compassionate, and rooted in dignity.
We are formally trained in EMDR and Brainspotting!
