Jenn Zatopek
Licensed Professional Counselor, 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.

Dr. Katerina Nair
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I support individuals who have experienced trauma or are living with symptoms of PTSD by creating a safe, compassionate space to process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable. We'll explore how trauma may have affected your sense of safety, relationships, emotional well-being, and relationship with yourself. My approach emphasizes healing, self-understanding, and rebuilding a sense of trust and connection—both within yourself and in your relationships with others.

Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR-BC®, REAT
Trauma and PTSD can shape how you experience yourself, your relationships, and your sense of safety, often showing up as reactivity, emotional shutdown, or feeling disconnected from your body or sense of self. These responses are not flaws—they are adaptive patterns shaped by past experiences. In our work together, we slow things down and begin to understand these patterns with care and compassion. My approach integrates expressive arts therapy, using modalities such as visual journaling, storytelling, movement, and other forms of creative expression to explore and process experiences that may be difficult to access through words alone, alongside a parts-informed perspective to understand the aspects of you shaped by survival and protection. For clients who are interested, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) can also be incorporated as a structured, evidence-based talk therapy approach, integrated in a way that aligns with your goals and pace.

Tammy Desko
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Trauma is unique - it affects theming, body and spirit in ways that standard talk therapy may not fully address. Therapy will help you process overwhelming experiences, manage symptoms like flashbacks or anxiety and rebuild a sense of safety.

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.
