Willow & Arbor, PLLC
Counselor/Therapist
Trauma impacts people in a variety of ways, so much so that some people do not recognize their experience as a result of trauma until it becomes debilitating or someone else points it out. We create a safe therapeutic space to process your past, present, and future together. We do not work on simply dismissing or letting trauma go. We work on emotional and behavioral insight, where and how the trauma is held in your life narrative, and post traumatic growth.

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
Dr. Sypher is highly experienced in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), an evidence-based treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). CPT is designed to help individuals process and make sense of traumatic experiences by identifying and challenging unhelpful beliefs that can develop in the aftermath of trauma. Through a structured and collaborative approach, Dr. Sypher supports clients in examining how trauma has impacted their thoughts about themselves, others, and the world, and in developing more balanced and adaptive perspectives. This work can lead to meaningful reductions in symptoms such as intrusive memories, avoidance, guilt, shame, and hypervigilance. With a focus on both clinical expertise and compassionate care, Dr. Sypher helps clients move toward recovery, regain a sense of control, and reconnect with their lives in a more grounded and empowered way.

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.
