Abbrielle Schenck
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-Associate
Trauma reshapes how the brain and body experience safety, connection, and meaning. My work focuses on helping clients feel grounded in the present while gently processing what the past still holds. I prioritize emotional safety, pacing, and nervous system regulation so healing does not feel retraumatizing. The goal is not to erase your story, but to help it hold less power over your life.

Discovery Point Retreat
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, LegitScript and Joint Commissions
Trauma and PTSD are strongly linked with substance use disorders, as individuals often attempt to numb painful memories, intrusive thoughts, or emotional distress with drugs or alcohol. Our trauma-informed dual diagnosis treatment helps clients safely process traumatic experiences while developing healthier coping mechanisms that support sustained recovery.

Kristin Wright
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Trauma often affects many people. Yet, most who have been through a trauma have been shunned, ridiculed, or put down for their experiences. This makes it scary for anyone to be vulnerable or to work through their issues. You need someone who will understand you and offer a judgement free and validating space to share your struggles. My passion is working with adults who have been through traumatic experiences, and it is my top priority to create an environment that helps them feel safe, protected, and validated in order to move forward into healing.

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.

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.
