Stacy Brumage
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCP, LCPC
Trauma can continue to affect your nervous system long after an experience has ended, showing up as hypervigilance, triggers, anxiety, avoidance, or feeling disconnected from yourself. I use trauma-focused approaches, including EMDR, to help clients process painful experiences and develop a greater sense of safety and stability.

Jill Verofsky
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., L.P.C., N.C.C.
Trauma occurs when an overwhelming event bypasses your normal coping mechanisms, leaving your threat response system permanently hot-wired. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) isn't "dwelling on the past"—it is a biological injury where your brain loses the ability to distinguish between a memory and an active threat.
