Lisa Barber
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC-S, CHN, HWC
Trauma is experienced in a multitude of ways. Trauma is stored in the body, even when the mind doesn't want to remember. Having the support and security of a counseling relationship can provide the opportunity for full healing and freedom from the past.

Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR-BC, REAT
Trauma affects how we see ourselves, others, and the world. It can shake our sense of safety, trust, self-worth, and control—often leaving us feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or numb. Many survivors carry stories shaped by trauma that aren’t true but still feel real, causing ongoing pain.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I work gently and collaboratively. Before starting Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), I often introduce visual journaling to help clients safely explore emotions and sensations. Expressive arts provide a nonverbal, grounding way to reconnect with the body and access feelings that may feel out of reach.
Trauma can make us feel like we’re just a “floating head”—cut off from our emotions and intuition. I’ve witnessed clients gradually reclaim insight, voice, and self-trust through creative expression. There is no pressure to follow a specific structure or use art—it’s always your choice. We go at your pace, honoring your readiness and your story.

Lea Purczinsky
Pre-Licensed Professional, Licensed Professional Counselor Associate
It may sound weird to say, but trauma is my heart. If you've been hurt in this life and are seeking healing, it would be my honor to navigate that alongside you. I use several trauma informed modalities that keep in mind how trauma affects the brain and body as we collaboratively unpack your life expereinces and work to take away the sting they can still hold many years later, including PTSD symptoms.
