Melissa Kummer Dague
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Trauma can impact us in every way of life. Fortunately, there are treatments to help. I trained in evidence based trauma modalities like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to best address the needs of those impacted by trauma. I would love to chat about how treatment for trauma may be helpful to improve your symptoms, and quality of life.

Courtney Loyola
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in complex trauma and PTSD, including childhood trauma, relational trauma, and long-term emotional abuse. Using EMDR and attachment-based therapy, we process unresolved experiences so they no longer drive current triggers, anxiety, or relationship patterns. Healing focuses on nervous system regulation, integration, and restoring a sense of safety and empowerment.

Trauma can be devastating. Memories that cannot be erased and keep coming back, a past that feels like the present, and constant tension, anxiety, depression. Trauma requires specific treatment, following certain steps in a safe environment or else therapy can be re-traumatizing.

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.

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

Sydney Fowler
Counselor/Therapist, MT-BC, LPC
I work with individuals experiencing trauma and PTSD, including symptoms such as intrusive memories, avoidance, heightened reactivity, and emotional distress. Trauma can have a lasting impact on how individuals feel, think, and relate to others, and treatment focuses on safely processing these experiences while building stability and coping skills. I utilize a trauma-informed approach, incorporating talk therapy and offering EMDR when appropriate to support adaptive processing and reduce symptom intensity. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, regain a sense of control, and move forward with greater confidence.
