Michelle Borunda
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I use EMDR alongside trauma informed talk therapy to help clients process experiences that still feel stuck, whether from a single event or from years of chronic stress. The goal isn't to relive what happened, but to help your nervous system finally register that it's over, so the past has less hold on your present.

Crystal Williamson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
The implications of trauma can be wide-ranging and may look different from person to person. Perhaps you have specific known trauma that left you with a distinct “before that day” and “after that day” in your life. Or maybe, you have woken up and realized that the environment that was normal to you for years was actually quite unhealthy and has altered the way you see yourself and the world. Either way, that is trauma and it can be understood, reprocessed by your brain, and healed to allow you to move forward as a healthier, happier you.

Lea Purczinsky
Pre-Licensed Professional, Licensed Professional Counselor Associate
It may sound weird to say, but trauma is my heart. If you've been hurt in this life and are seeking healing, it would be my honor to navigate that alongside you. I use several trauma informed modalities that keep in mind how trauma affects the brain and body as we collaboratively unpack your life expereinces and work to take away the sting they can still hold many years later, including PTSD symptoms.

Miles O’Brien
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A
A helpful definition of trauma is something that overwhelms our coping skills, then leaves us different as we move forward. - Dr. Paul Conti. Trauma can be extremely hard to live with. You have value and I wish you didn't go through trauma. We can get to the root of your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs to help you heal.

Lisa Barber
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC-S, CHN, HWC
Trauma is experienced in a multitude of ways. Trauma is stored in the body, even when the mind doesn't want to remember. Having the support and security of a counseling relationship can provide the opportunity for full healing and freedom from the past.

Jenn Zatopek
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, EMDR
I'm a trauma specialist, and I use EMDR and mindfulness to help you heal from past pain. EMDR helps to unlock the trauma from the nervous system, but I don't start out doing EMDR. I start out doing a lot of resourcing and grounding to help you feel safe inside your own skin. Then when you are ready to begin processing we can do so.

James Parker
Psychologist, PhD
A myriad of definitions exist for "trauma." Bad things happen in life - that's part of being alive. But I view the definition as: trauma is when bad things happen, and you feel you have no way out. Trauma can result from one event or a chronic situation. I primarily utilize Coherence Therapy, which is an approach to treatment that is different from many others in that - instead of focusing on what is "negative" or "wrong" as a result of a traumatic experience - the purpose is to genuinely understand a person's symptoms; to curiously explore why maintaining certain patterns of thinking and behavior is emotionally necessary, even when a person is feeling stuck because of those patterns. Understanding the symptom leads to identifying the underlying emotional reasons of why we do things and addresses the cause of feeling stuck, not just the symptom, which then leads to meaningful and lasting changes. If you can uproot the cause, there is no need for life-long maintenance of coping with it.

Arlington sits between Dallas and Fort Worth at the heart of the DFW Metroplex and serves a large suburban residential population navigating the particular stresses of fast-growing communities — long commutes, family pressure, and the challenges of raising children in a rapidly changing environment. The city has a large Hispanic and growing South Asian population, with increasing demand for culturally affirming and bilingual therapists. The University of Texas at Arlington provides a significant student population, and the city is served by Medical City Arlington and Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital for institutional mental health needs. Many Arlington residents also access therapy across the wider DFW metro, making the city part of a larger regional therapy ecosystem centered on Dallas and Fort Worth.
