Brittney Schultz Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MAC, BSP, LPC
Brainspotting suggests that the brain can heal itself from inside. It aims to stimulate the brain’s healing ability by evoking and releasing the negative emotions and experiences that have been stored in it. It does this by identifying an eye position that triggers and releases these emotions.
Brainspotting works with the deep brain and the body through its direct access to the autonomic and limbic systems within the body’s central nervous system.
**Offering crisis counseling and supports for first responders, front line workers and victims of tragedies!

Jennifer Candler, B.S.
Pre-Licensed Professional, Master's-Level Counseling Intern
Trauma can change the way you move through the world. You may feel constantly on edge, feeling hijacked by your emotions, disconnected, or unsure who you are outside of what happened. Relationships can feel confusing or unsafe. I offer a compassionate space to process these experiences at your pace, helping you regain a sense of safety, voice, and connection to yourself.

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.

Kimberly Zacher
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC, SAC
Trauma can leave lasting imprints on the body, mind, and nervous system, affecting how you feel, relate, and respond to the world around you. Post-traumatic stress may involve flashbacks, anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or difficulty feeling safe. I provide a trauma-informed, compassionate approach to help you process what happened without retraumatization. Using modalities such as EMDR, somatic therapy, sensorimotor treatment, and parts work, we focus on restoring a sense of safety, connection, and control. Healing from trauma is possible, and you do not have to go through it alone.

Sarayu Meraki
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NARM Master Therapist
Complex trauma lives in the patterns in how you relate to yourself, your body, your needs, and other people. You may notice self-pressure, shame, self-abandonment, relational fear, perfectionism, shutdown, or the feeling that you have to earn connection by becoming easier, smaller, or more useful. In therapy, we do not treat these patterns as proof that something is wrong with you. We get curious about how they helped you survive. My work is depth-oriented and relational, focusing on agency, self-trust, and present-moment experience. Healing is not about forcing yourself to move on. It is about understanding the ways you had to leave yourself, honoring the intelligence of your adaptations, and slowly building the capacity to reconnect with whatever matters most to you.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals who have experienced trauma and its lasting emotional, psychological, and physiological effects. With extensive clinical experience treating trauma across community mental health and private practice settings, I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how trauma impacts the brain, body, and nervous system. I also help clients learn how to regulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, building skills to reduce reactivity, increase grounding, and restore a sense of internal safety. Together, we process traumatic experiences at a safe pace while strengthening emotional regulation and resilience. My approach is compassionate, structured, and trauma-informed, supporting clients as they move toward healing and integration.
