Daniel Gowan
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT
Trauma can change how we see the world—and ourselves. Whether from childhood, combat, abuse, or something else, healing is possible. Traum can be with a capital T (Trauma) or lower case t (trauma). Both impact us greatly! With a trauma-informed, spiritually sensitive approach, I help people move from survival to restoration at a pace that feels safe and respectful.

Benjamin Conner Trauma To Peace Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S. Clinical Mental Health Counseling, LPC, EMDR, Veteran
The word trauma is often used only for the "Hollywood" version. Your brain responds with traumatic patterns of thought and behavior to many things it cannot understand and solve in the moment. If you think I am not good enough, I am not valued, I am a failure, it's not safe to feel, it's not safe to be me...all of those messages and more are a part of traumatic response. There are techniques that help reprocess those messages and lead to internal peace. "I am" is a powerful thought process that comes from post traumatic growth. That work is something we can do together.

Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Trauma isn't just what happened to you — it's what happened inside you as a result. And it has a way of living on long after the event is over, showing up in your body, your relationships, your sleep, and the ways you've learned to stay safe in a world that once felt very unsafe.
You don't have to have survived something catastrophic to be carrying trauma. Childhood wounds, chronic emotional pain, betrayal, loss, and the slow accumulation of experiences that told you that you weren't safe, loved, or enough — these leave marks too. Whatever brought you here, your experience is valid and your healing matters.
I work with individuals navigating PTSD, complex trauma, and the wide range of ways that painful experiences continue to shape daily life. My approach is paced and collaborative — we don't rush toward the hard material before you're ready, and you're never pushed further than you want to go. Safety comes first, always.
Trauma work can be some of the most profound and life-changing therapy a person does. When you're ready to stop just surviving the past and start building something different, I'd be honored to walk that road with you.

Aubrey Richardson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Trauma is not just what happened. It is how those experiences continue to live in your body, your relationships, and your sense of safety.
Many of my clients grew up in environments that looked “fine” on the surface, but required them to become a “little adult” far too early. They learned to anticipate needs, manage emotions, stay hyper-aware of others, and take on responsibility that was never theirs to carry. This often develops in the context of emotional neglect, subtle instability, or environments where love and safety were inconsistent or had to be earned.
Because of this, you may not always identify your experiences as trauma. You may just know that you feel constantly on edge, overly responsible, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from yourself.
These patterns do not just live in your thoughts. They live in your body. You may notice chronic tension, difficulty relaxing, hypervigilance, or feeling like you can never fully “turn off,” even when things are objectively okay.
In our work together, we focus on helping you understand how these early patterns shaped the way you relate to yourself and others, while also addressing the somatic impact of living in a prolonged state of stress. Using mindfulness, somatic awareness, and evidence-based approaches, we work to reduce reactivity, rebuild a sense of internal safety, and create more sustainable, balanced ways of living and relating.
You adapted in ways that made sense at the time, but you do not have to keep living that way now

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
I specialize in childhood trauma and C-PTSD, the kind that comes from being in emotionally or relationally unsafe situations over and over, usually in ways nobody around you noticed. Often it doesn’t feel like trauma. Being the capable one, the good kid, or the one who held it together worked, until it didn’t.
Peter Levine wrote that trauma is less about what happened and more about what we’ve held inside without an empathetic witness. For a lot of people, healing starts there, with being seen and heard and finally telling the story. From there, we work with your younger parts and the protectors that kept you safe. We also do soul retrieval, bringing back the parts of you that had to leave to survive. Many of my clients are parents breaking the cycle, reparenting themselves while raising their kids.
