Brandie L McCray
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, LCDC
Verified
As the child of a Vietnam Veteran with PTSD, I have experienced the long lasting effects of trauma and understand the impact on our heroes and their family members; including First Responders. Untreated trauma, not just Military related, can lead to depression, anxiety, addictions, unhealthy relationships, suicidal thoughts/behaviors, and so much more. Sometimes it can feel like you are alone in the darkness. I will walk with you in the darkness until you find the light again.
Betsy Walker
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Verified
An ideal client is one who is at an age that she or he is ready to settle the haunting torments of childhood abuse. She or he has enough memories to begin to work with and has enough faith to believe healing is possible. She needs a companion, a counselor, on the path to healing. She needs someone who is caring and will allow her or his to move at her or his own pace—who is motivational but not pushy. The client’s goal is to normalize important relationships in his or her current life. The client also wants peace with his or her past, as well as a balanced life in the future.
