PTSD/Trauma
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.

PTSD/Trauma
Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
Trauma often leaves us responding to the present as though the past is still happening. Many reactions that feel confusing or frustrating today once served an important protective purpose, even if they no longer fit your current life. Through a compassionate, trauma-informed approach, we'll work to understand those patterns instead of judging them. Together, we'll help you develop greater flexibility in responding to painful emotions while creating a stronger sense of safety and connection in the present.

PTSD/Trauma
Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
None of us can escape some level of trauma; inevitably, it will be a part of life. How much it affects us, however, depends on many factors including the nervous system we were born with, our outer resources, and how much relational support we receive to help us recover from the trauma. Many people do not have access to adequate resources to help them recover from trauma (and this is very subjective and personal, varying from person to person), and the trauma continues to affect them in (sometimes subtle, but still) impactful ways. If certain factors come together, PTSD may develop out of trauma. Often clients feel like they have failed because they can't completely "get over" their PTSD reactions. I have often reminded clients that PTSD is "the gift that keeps on giving". It can be very hard, perhaps impossible, to completely eradicate PTSD reactions, because the reaction is not just of the mind, it is of the whole body. My approach to helping clients with trauma and PTSD involves looking at it holistically and working to understand how the trauma changed you, your reaction across many facets of your life (thoughts, feelings, habits, behaviors, self-care or lack thereof, expectations, how you view the world), and then working on replacing what is harmful with what is helpful. The goal isn't to completely get rid of the PTSD symptoms (which is likely impossible) but rather to dramatically reduce its effect on you, so you can live your best life, and so an occasional symptom breaking through will not derail you.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Trauma has a way of rewriting your story without your permission. Even when you tell yourself you’ve moved past it, memories can suddenly feel overwhelming, trust becomes harder, and your mind and body stay on high alert. Dr. Shields understands how exhausting and isolating this experience can be. She provides compassionate, specialized support grounded in highly effective trauma-specific approaches, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). With care, empathy, and patience, she’ll help you rebuild your sense of safety, regain your clarity, and reclaim your story—on your own terms.
