Ginny Vose

I help people of all ages- children, teens, and adults - who are survivors of complex trauma and PTSD. I am passionate about empowering survivors to loosen the chains of trauma and move forward. I use EMDR, DBT, CPT and play therapy to help clients to overcome the inner pain of trauma and build a life that is safer and more grounded. I enjoy helping children through the use of Child Centered Play Therapy and Playful EMDR to support children through challenges like self-esteem, bullying and other school- related problems. With 25 years spent as an educator, I have stood in those hallways and know what kids face. Additionally, I enjoy working with parents to navigate the everyday challenges that arise in parenting in this digital age. I enjoy walking with adolescents and teens who struggle just to get up and go to school each day because I remember what that felt like when I was a teenager. I also enjoy walking with students who self -harm, struggle with suicide ideology, bullying, and navigating peer and parental relationships. I consider it an honor to walk along with Trauma Survivors as a certified Traumatologist. I have supported people in healing from sexual assault, traumatic accidents, profound grief, and many other life-altering events. I feel deeply honored to care for firefighters, police officers, and first responders impacted by they have seen on the job. I offer Animal Assisted Therapy with her French Bulldog, Zoey, who is especially comforting to all of the clients that I see.

I take a collaborative, down‐to‐earth approach to therapy. We’ll decide together what works best for you, whether that’s straightforward talk therapy, EMDR for trauma, DBT skills, or play‐based work for kids and teens. I move at your pace and always follow your lead, with a big focus on what’s actually true in your story so you can move forward with less shame and more freedom. My goal is for you to feel comfortable, understood, and safe enough to be honest.

In our first session, we’ll slow things down and just get to know each other. I’ll ask about what brought you in, what’s been hardest lately, and what you’re hoping will feel different. You can share as much or as little as you’re ready for — there’s no pressure to tell your whole story at once. I’ll also explain how I work, answer any questions you have about therapy, and together we’ll come up with a simple plan for our next few sessions so you know what to expect.
