How do you work with clients with trauma and PTSD?

Hello, I’m Ashley Collins. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I offer holistic mental health care for children and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, and ADHD. My approach combines therapy, lifestyle changes, and nutrition to foster resilience and help each child face challenges with strength. I am especially experienced in supporting children affected by trauma and working with military families navigating the stresses of military life. My care philosophy is rooted in finding and addressing the root causes, not just managing symptoms, and I use parent coaching, nutraceuticals, and metabolic health assessments to support lasting well-being. As a mother of two with personal experience in anxiety and ADHD, I understand the complexities families face. If you’re seeking a practitioner who prioritizes listening, empathy, and personalized care, let’s explore how we can work together to help your child thrive. I’m currently accepting new telehealth patients in Ohio and Oregon. Treatment philosophy: My philosophy centers on holistic care—addressing the whole child rather than just symptoms. Traditional psychiatry often focuses narrowly on managing symptoms, while I integrate nutrition, lifestyle, and therapeutic interventions to uncover and treat root causes. This approach fosters resilience and a healthier mind and body, reducing the need for medication where possible. My goal is to build lasting well-being through individualized, compassionate care.

Hello there! My name is Lauren and I am the owner and founder of the Nourish Center. A group practice offering a wide variety of support and help for many of life's challenges. We offer individual, group, couple's and family therapy in person and virtually. 

Hi, I'm glad you're here. The choice to start therapy isn't easy, but you are not alone on this journey. We live in a cyclical world where everything ebbs and flows and at some point in our lives, we may feel stuck or face certain challenges. We will encounter obstacles, conflicts, painful transitions, grief and loss or a sense of helplessness. As a result, we may feel alone, disconnected, angry, anxious, misunderstood and confused. In a safe environment of warmth, acceptance and compassion, I will work with you to explore and confront the emotional and interpersonal challenges that are bringing you pain or holding you back. By uncovering the obstacles holding you back, you can learn to make better choices, turn goals into realities, and find a greater sense of peace, purpose and freedom. I am passionate about helping people create and maintain deeper connections, with self and others while on their path to healing. I specialize in working with adults and couples on a wide array of issues, including depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief and loss, divorce, infidelity, trauma, body image, identity and self-esteem.  While I incorporate a variety of modalities into my work, both traditional and modern neuroscience and evidence-based, I practice through a holistic lens and a mindful perspective integrating the mind, body and spirit connection.  I received my Master degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University Graduate School of Education and Psychology, with an emphasis in Marriage Family Therapy and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from UCLA. In addition, I received extensive training on mindfulness, cultural competency, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and am currently in process of obtaining a Clinical Trauma Professional Certification.
