Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR, REAT
Trauma impacts every area of our lives - how we see ourselves, others and the world. It can destroy our sense of safety, trust, esteem, intimacy, and power/control. We create stories that are untrue and cause ourselves pain. I enjoy adding Expressive Arts Therapy to Cognitive Processing Therapy. Expressive arts can be a way to express oneself non-verbally which has helped many clients access their connection to their body and emotions. Trauma creates a disconnect from the mind and body. Almost as if we become a floating head. I have witnessed several clients reconnect to their feelings and body through keeping an art journal and sharing in session. In addition, overtime they were able to access their own insight and inner wisdom. Working on trauma is scary for many people. There is no pressure to follow a prescribed course or use art. I understand how difficult it is to share the story and trust a new therapist. I work at a client's comfort level and pace.

Dr. Sophia Aguirre
Psychologist, Ph.D., CGP, F-AGPA
My approach to working with Trauma and PTSD is holistic, integrative and collaborative. My goals for trauma/PTSD work are trifold: 1) helping you heal from difficult traumatic memories that are keeping you stuck in the past so that you can focus on what is truly important in the present 2) helping you gain insight and awareness into how your past trauma(s) are impacting the relationships in your life (relationships with others and with your own self) and 3) helping you move away from fear/avoidance-based behaviors and choices and instead, make choices in your life that are aligned with your goals and values. I am here for you when you are ready to begin your healing journey.

Wilbur Carranza
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
When trauma occurs the mind and body can feel as though they are held hostage by those experiences. It can be helpful to have someone help you walk beside you as you begin to heal. Trauma-informed therapy offers an opportunity to process trauma, and regulate the nervous system so you feel more empowered to move forward feeling more like yourself.
