Shannon Mick
Counselor/Therapist, NCC, LPC
Trauma can leave lasting imprints—making you feel jumpy and on high alert (hyperarousal), numb or disconnected (hypoarousal), or like you’re no longer yourself. For endurance athletes, this might show up as hypervigilance on trails, difficulty recovering from injuries or setbacks, emotional overwhelm during hard efforts, or old memories that intrude when you’re trying to push forward. Whether the trauma is recent or from years ago, it can steal safety, trust, and joy from both running and everyday life.
In our work together, we create a safe, paced space to process what happened without becoming overwhelmed. Using CBT to reframe trauma-related thoughts, DBT skills for distress tolerance and emotion regulation, ACT to rebuild a meaningful life, and movement-informed approaches to regulate your nervous system, we focus on gentle, body-based tools that help you feel grounded and in control again.
Many clients experience meaningful healing such as:
Reduced hypervigilance and fewer intrusive memories or flashbacks.
Better nervous system regulation—shifting out of fight/flight/freeze more easily.
Renewed ability to feel safe and present during runs and in daily life.
Stronger self-trust and confidence after setbacks (injury, DNFs, or life challenges).
Feeling more like themselves—calmer, more connected, and hopeful.
I share practical resources like Distress Tolerance Coping Skills (DBT) and nervous system regulation strategies that we can personalize and practice between sessions.
Healing from trauma is courageous work, and you don’t have to do it alone. You can process the past, regulate your body and mind, and move forward with greater strength and freedom—on the trails and in life. Together, we’ll help you finish stronger.

Shira Collings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Many people seeking counseling for mental health issues have experienced trauma. I feel that it is very important to acknowledge the wide variety of difficult experiences that can have the impact of trauma. Trauma can be caused by not only physical and sexual violence but also emotional abuse, bullying, oppression/discrimination, body shaming, microaggressions, religious and spiritual abuse, and more. Some of the approaches I use to treat trauma include Cognitive Processing Therapy and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
