Trauma and PTSD
Heather Curry
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
Trauma is not only what happened in the past but how your nervous system learned to respond afterward. You may understand logically that you are safe yet still feel on edge, reactive in relationships, or pulled into old emotional states quickly. Triggers often seem disproportionate even when you can explain them.
Using EMDR and attachment-based work, therapy helps process experiences that your brain still treats as present. Rather than repeatedly retelling the story, we help your system update how it holds those memories so reactions gradually become less intense and more choiceful. The goal is not to erase the past but to allow it to stay in the past so daily life requires less vigilance.

Trauma and PTSD
Carrie Torn
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Carrie often treats trauma using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) as a Certified EMDR therapist. EMDR is an evidence-based practice used in psychotherapy to treat trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and phobias. EMDR helps facilitate the brain's natural healing processes through bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements or tapping.
During a traumatic or stressful event, the brain does not process information as it normally would. When overwhelmed, information can get stuck or stored in the brain in unhelpful ways allowing past events to negatively affect you in the present. The old stored information can be triggered in the present and can cause you to have flash backs or be triggered by similar thoughts, feelings, or bodily sensations from when the trauma occurred. This can impact the way a person views the world and how they relate with others.
EMDR uses eye movements (similar to what occurs during REM sleep) to help facilitate information processing and reduce the effects of trauma and the underlying negative beliefs.

Trauma and PTSD
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
