Dr. Danielle Watkins at Sound Wellness Counseling PLLC
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LMFT, LMHC, NCC, PMH-C
When specializing in trauma and PTSD treatment, I focus on supporting individuals who have experienced deeply distressing or life-threatening events, helping them process and heal from the lasting emotional, psychological, and physical effects. This work addresses symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, hypervigilance, and avoidance, while providing a safe and structured space to explore traumatic experiences. Using evidence-based approaches like trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and grounding techniques, counseling helps clients regain a sense of safety, process difficult memories, and rebuild resilience. The goal is to empower individuals to reclaim control, restore emotional balance, and move toward healing and post-traumatic growth.

Dr. Megie Shean
Psychologist, PsyD
I have spent my career supporting those after trauma - including combat Veterans, sexual assault survivors, and women following birth trauma. I understand trauma's impact on your ability to engage in life and work to TREAT trauma, which is possible. You can get back to trusting others, feeling safe in your world, making decisions, and engaging fully in your days.

Dr. Misty Gibson
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LMHC, LCPC, LPC, CST-S, ACS
I work with adults healing from trauma and PTSD who want to rebuild safety, trust, and connection in their relationships and sexual lives. Trauma shapes the nervous system in powerful ways and many clients find that their bodies react before their minds can make sense of what is happening. This can lead to shutdown, hypervigilance, numbness, fear of intimacy, or difficulty communicating needs. In therapy, we explore how your survival responses formed, how they influence your relational patterns today, and how to create new experiences of safety and connection that support your healing. This work is paced gently and collaboratively so you always remain in control. Together we build emotional regulation, strengthen your sense of agency, and support the restoration of healthy intimacy and pleasure. You learn how to understand your triggers without shame, reconnect with your body, and move toward relationships that feel supportive, attuned, and aligned with your values.

Carolyne Mburu-Gerena
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
Trauma and PTSD can impact how you think, feel, and relate to others long after the original experience has passed. I work with individuals who have experienced childhood trauma, relationship trauma, violence, or other overwhelming life events, helping them process painful memories in a safe and supportive space. Using evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches, my goal is to help clients reduce symptoms, rebuild a sense of safety, and move toward healing, resilience, and a more empowered life.

Daniel Hong
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC
Trauma and PTSD can leave lasting emotional, physical, and relational imprints, often shaping how safe, connected, or present you feel in your daily life. Beginning trauma work can feel intimidating, especially when painful memories or experiences have been carried for a long time. I approach this work with care, pacing, and deep respect for your nervous system and readiness. Using EMDR alongside a relational, person-centered foundation, I aim to create a space where trauma processing can feel safer, more contained, and achievable. Together, we move at a pace that supports stability while allowing healing, integration, and a renewed sense of agency to emerge over time.
