PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Trauma has a way of showing up and persisting despite our efforts to keep it at bay. For some, it’s like a thorn that has settled into place and doesn’t hurt too badly as long as you focus your attention elsewhere. For others, it’s an unavoidable, constant source of pain, anger, and fear. Whether it happened recently or decades ago, trauma can take up valuable space in our lives. This may come in the form of unwanted memories, difficulty trusting others, feeling on edge, irritability, avoiding certain situations, or maybe all of the above. Unfortunately, efforts to avoid thinking about past traumatic events often keep people from seeking treatment and finding relief. Although challenging, addressing and resolving emotional wounds can be incredibly liberating and rewarding. Trauma treatment can positively shift the lens through which you see yourself, your relationships, and ultimately the world around you.

PTSD/Trauma
Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma lives in our bodies, wreaking havoc on your nervous system, emotional reactivity, and relationships. Whether your trauma comes from early childhood experiences or a traumatic childbirth experience, we can work together to help you heal. I will help you tell your story in a setting of safety. If you prefer not to rehash what happened, we can help your body and mind process the lingering emotions, body sensations, and intrusive images using an eye movement therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy. This helps reduce symptoms in just a few sessions, often only one session. Clients says they are surprised at the quick relief from ART. Using traditional talk therapy or ART, we can continue to process what happened and help you learn to relate to the world in a different way, or help you prepare for future situations that are similar. Many women who have experienced traumatic births find ART helpful in enabling them to decide whether to have more children from a clear mind and not from a place of fear.

PTSD/Trauma
Madison Zimbal
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA counseling intern under supervision
Trauma and PTSD can impact every part of life, how safe you feel in your body, how you relate to others, and how you interpret everyday experiences. Symptoms may show up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, hypervigilance, difficulty trusting, intrusive memories, or feeling disconnected from yourself. In trauma work, my priority is creating a safe and supportive environment where healing does not feel rushed or overwhelming. We begin by building emotional regulation skills and stability, so clients feel more grounded before moving into deeper processing work. I recognize that trauma is not just something that is “talked about,” but something that is also held in the body and nervous system.
I am trained in Brainspotting and use this approach to help clients access and process traumatic experiences that may be difficult to reach through traditional talk therapy alone. Brainspotting supports the brain’s natural capacity to process and release stored trauma in a focused, contained, and client-led way. This allows healing to unfold at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Alongside trauma processing, I integrate CBT and DBT-informed skills to support coping, emotional regulation, and present-day functioning. This combination helps clients not only process the past, but also feel more stable and empowered in their daily lives. For clients who desire it, Christian counseling can also be incorporated, offering a space where faith, hope, and spiritual grounding can support the healing journey. I believe that restoration is possible, even after deeply painful experiences. My goal is to help clients move from survival mode into a place of greater safety, connection, and internal steadiness—where the past no longer holds the same level of control over the present.
