Crisis, Trauma, and PTSD

Tragedy inevidibly strikes us all at one time or another. It is normal for it to slow us down and change how we live our lives for a little bit. Learn what to look for and how to respond to it whether it is you or a loved one that has been impacted.

Types of Traumatic Stress

December 14, 2018/in Crisis, Trauma, and PTSD /by Jonathan Anderson

In case you have not read my other posts on Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS), I’d like to begin by clarifying that just because somebody has gone through a trauma does not mean that they have a “disorder” (as in PTSd or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). A soldier returning from combat may or may not show symptoms of […]

Talking to kids about tragedy

March 1, 2018/in Crisis, Trauma, and PTSD /by Jonathan Anderson

Many parents feel that they would like to protect their children from the darkness that is in the world right now. There is wisdom in limiting their exposure, especially to repeated scary-sounding news stories on TV, Radio, or computers. But it is important that you be the one that helps them learn how to handle […]

Bullying

November 28, 2016/in Crisis, Trauma, and PTSD /by Jonathan Anderson

Bullying is not as simple as you think When I was growing up, bullying was face-to-face pushing and shoving, maybe some rumors, perhaps intimidating phone calls. Those were bad enough, but it was a little easier to take care of the situation. Now we have not only the physical and psychological bullying but now we […]

Grieving an unfair loss

October 27, 2016/in Crisis, Trauma, and PTSD /by Jonathan Anderson

Balancing the anger and sadness of an unfair loss can feel impossible, especially in the beginning. First, breathe and understand that this will pass even though it does not feel like it. Before going any further, if you are unsure, please get in touch so we can spend a few minutes on the phone to […]

Client, J. R.
I started seeing Jonathan almost 10 years ago, initially for the reoccurrence of a traumatic event, and continue now on with him as a life guide. I quickly found comfort in his care with his eclectic, empathetic approach. Within minutes he has a way to pinpoint a concern and delve straight into it. I owe quite a lot to Jonathan for the changed person I am today. I now have a gift of a toolbox to fight stress, anxiety, insomnia, anger, depression and fear. It’s hard to believe I can say this but with Jon’s help, that trauma event no longer owns me. I have self confidence and feel a different t…

I have known Jon Anderson for almost 20 years and have always been impressed with the energy and passion that he brings to his counseling sessions. He is amazing with individuals and even better with couples. He possesses that perfect mixture of clinical knowledge and natural instincts that enable him to truly connect with his clients. People walk away from his office feeling heard and validated. Better yet, they feel like they can overcome obstacles and reach their goals with Jon on their team.

Jonathan has great appointment options in that he can meet on the phone, in person, and/or via skype/face time. He’s also very fair and objective when dealing with highly personal topics. I sincerely feel I’ve made strong personal gains as a result of our working together. I’ve already recommended his services to several friends/family/peers because I trust that he will give them the individual care they may need.

Jonathan Anderson has been very instrumental during a difficult time in my life. He allows the conversation to follow the path of my needs, and is quite capable to keeping me focused during our discussions His experience in marriage counseling has been valuable during the last couple of years. My need was not for the marriage itself, but for family medical issues. He has assisted me in providing the support for my husband during this most difficult time, while at the same time insuring that I did not forget how to take care of myself both emotionally and physically. I would highly recommend yo…

Client, L. H.
I was referred to Jonathan by a friend after the loss of a very good friend through suicide. Jonathan guided me through the grief process and that morphed into understanding much deeper and suppressed feelings and thought processes as well as unhealthy coping mechanisms during times of stress I had developed as a child. I felt that even though it was my journey of sorts was mine and mine alone I never felt that I was by-myself. I will always appreciate Jonathan’s frankness, ability to get me to talk about things that had been buried my whole adult life as well as giving me the “tools” to sort …

I have known Jonathan as a colleague and a friend for over 20 years. His intuition, energy and passion with clients has always impressed me. Jonathan never stops seeking information about his profession, and his clients benefit from this continued education on best practices. Over the years I’ve consulted with Jonathan on numerous occasions and he’s been very helpful for me in my own practice.  I feel very confident in recommending Jonathan for your counseling needs.

Client, A. D.
After a few counseling sessions with Jon, I felt compelled to write this quick review. My wife and I would like to thank Mr. Anderson for assisting us through some challenging moments. Jon quickly opened our eyes to different approaches and strategies to better communication. It’s amazing how you can get into a rut, or habit of the same negative communication patterns, but think you are being completely open minded. Jon opened my eyes to this better understanding, without making me feel judged, and for that I highly recommend him.
