PTSD/Trauma
Ross Kellogg, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Individual, Marriage, and Family Therapist (LMFT)
Single event trauma and long-term developmental trauma in childhood can each be overwhelming experiences that bring about an overwhelming set of symptoms that often end in a lot of isolation for the traumatized person. Therapy can help you re-engage with people and life again. A multi modality approach including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy couples with Object Relations Therapy and Internal Family Systems Therapy can often be an effective method for managing symptoms, getting back to feeling good, and accepting the full impact and meaning of the traumatic event(s).

Vanessa Hooper
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, PMH-C
Trauma changes how your body and brain respond to the present, not just how you remember the past. As an EMDR-trained clinician specializing in complex childhood and relational trauma, I help you process what happened and reclaim a sense of safety in your own life.

Does this sound familiar?
You feel isolated and alone - even when you aren’t.
Intense emotions suddenly flood your everyday life.
You are stuck in relationship patterns that just aren’t working anymore.
You try so hard to manage your emotions - only to feel worse moments later.
You are tired of being told to, “breathe,” “go to yoga” or “use the skills.”
You are critical towards yourself - and maybe those around you.
As Difficult As It May Be To Believe At Times,
Your survival system is doing what it is designed to do - protect you from harm.
It may be keeping you on high alert, constantly scanning for threats, or shutting down and disconnecting to shield you from the pain?
You Don’t Need More Coping Advice, You Need Relief.
Many of our clients come to us with long treatment histories - they’ve tried coping skills, thought challenging, self-help resources and behavior change - but the pain persists. With each failed treatment, they feel more shame, self-blame and hopelessness. But, we want you to know, it’s not your fault - those treatments were never designed to address the core of your suffering.

PTSD/Trauma
Brian Jones
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MEd, LMHC, LPC
I specifically focus on people with religious trauma. You might not have thought about your trauma as religious. But did you have a tough time growing up in a strict church environment? So did I. Maybe you didn't even realize the effect it had on you until much later in life.
I use Internal Family Systems therapy, which is an approach used specifically for trauma. However, it is not a PTSD approach. If you suffer from severe PTSD symptoms, I'm probably not the right fit for you. If you're not sure, schedule a free consultation. I can provide you with referrals to PTSD specialists if we decide that's appropriate.

PTSD/Trauma
Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
None of us can escape some level of trauma; inevitably, it will be a part of life. How much it affects us, however, depends on many factors including the nervous system we were born with, our outer resources, and how much relational support we receive to help us recover from the trauma. Many people do not have access to adequate resources to help them recover from trauma (and this is very subjective and personal, varying from person to person), and the trauma continues to affect them in (sometimes subtle, but still) impactful ways. If certain factors come together, PTSD may develop out of trauma. Often clients feel like they have failed because they can't completely "get over" their PTSD reactions. I have often reminded clients that PTSD is "the gift that keeps on giving". It can be very hard, perhaps impossible, to completely eradicate PTSD reactions, because the reaction is not just of the mind, it is of the whole body. My approach to helping clients with trauma and PTSD involves looking at it holistically and working to understand how the trauma changed you, your reaction across many facets of your life (thoughts, feelings, habits, behaviors, self-care or lack thereof, expectations, how you view the world), and then working on replacing what is harmful with what is helpful. The goal isn't to completely get rid of the PTSD symptoms (which is likely impossible) but rather to dramatically reduce its effect on you, so you can live your best life, and so an occasional symptom breaking through will not derail you.
