At Journey to a Trauma Informed Life, we are committed to providing a welcoming environment for every client we work with. As a group, we specialize in working with LGBTQ+, HIV+, BIPOC, and those living with a disability. Whether you work with me directly or one of our member therapists, we are skilled in helping people resolve past traumatic events which are interfering with your ability to function from day to day. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and trained in Trauma-Focused CBT. Head to our website (www.atraumainformedlife.com) to learn more
My specialty is simply taking a client-centered approach to my work. I am experienced in a variety of approaches including Play Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Structural Therapy, Shadow Work and Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR).
I take a collaborative approach when working with my clients - either one-on-one, as a couple, or as a family group. Instead of asking "What's wrong with you?" I start with "What happened, or is happening now, that helps make sense out of this frustrating behavior or feeling?"

Dr. Koehler is an excellent therapist and clinical supervisor. He's taught me most of what I know about trauma-focused therapy. He's done his own work, so he shows up to therapy and supervision as his full self, with compassion and authenticity.
