PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Amy Karbasi
Psychologist, PsyD
I provide therapy for adults experiencing trauma and PTSD, including the effects of medical trauma, frightening health experiences, and other distressing or overwhelming events, including trauma from childhood, abuse, military/combat, and more. I use evidence-based, trauma-focused treatments such as Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, and more. These approaches can help you understand and work through trauma-related symptoms such as anxiety, avoidance, repetitive memories or nightmares, heightened alertness, and feeling unsafe or mistrusting of others. Treatment is individualized and may incorporate cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, exposure (gradually and safely approaching feared activities or triggers), and mind-body approaches to help you process difficult experiences and regain a greater sense of safety, confidence, and engagement in your life.

PTSD/Trauma
Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
My understanding of trauma has shifted along with international research on why some events create lasting challenging effects for some people but not for others. Our collective awareness has gone from thinking, “What's wrong with you?” to asking, “What happened to you?” and now focusing on, “Who was there for you?”
A simple retelling of a traumatic experience does not always deeply heal the one who suffers. While it can feel good to be truly heard, especially for those who have never told it before and need real empathy, repeatedly telling the story does not often change the subconscious beliefs implanted during the trauma or the nervous system’s reactivity.
Instead, we build a new relationship with a traumatic experience by re-approaching the memory and inviting a shift. Often the shift is around “Who could have been there for you.” While in factual reality, no one may have stopped the trauma, we can access another perspective that enables our bodies, hearts, and minds to feel supported. We can do this many ways: through role play, through calling in ancestors or pop stars or our highest selves, or by letting our wise adult-self take over the situation. Or we may use drawing materials or nature to discover a new part of the experience we didn’t realize before.
I've taken many trainings in the origins and effects of trauma and PTSD, and I find working with the nervous system and imaginal realm (creative liminal space) highly effective. I'm not a licensed mental health therapist; I'm a spiritual life coach, so my work is integrative. I offer: calm spaciousness & empathy as you talk, embodied processing options (drawing, clay work, self soothing), and inner parts work (mediated inner dialogue or a “committee of voices,” similar to Soulwork or Internal Family Systems).
Then we make a plan to implement the new shift into everyday life.

Awaken Wellness Center, Inc.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Trauma doesn't follow a timeline — it can live in the body long after the event has passed. We meet you where you are, using Brainspotting to help your brain and body process traumatic memories at their source, and IFS to gently work with the parts of you still carrying fear, hypervigilance, or shutdown.
