Summit Psychology provides specialized virtual therapy for complex trauma, PTSD therapy, therapy for veterans, first responders, and people whose past therapy has not reached the full depth of their experience.
This is care for what has been hard to name — grounded in clinical depth, trauma awareness, and a non-pathologizing understanding of survival.
A therapist who specializes in complex trauma should have the skill to tolerate ambiguity, intensity, and high-acuity emotional work. At Summit, Dr. Jeanne Layne brings depth psychology training, ongoing consultation, and a non-pathologizing approach to complex trauma care online.
A PSYPACT therapist is a licensed psychologist who is authorized to provide telepsychology across participating PSYPACT states. This means you may be able to see Dr. Layne online even if you are not located in Michigan, allowing access to specialized virtual care from a psychologist without being limited to your local area.
To find an out-of-network trauma therapist, look for a clinician who can provide a superbill for possible reimbursement through your insurance plan. Summit is an out-of-network practice, which means clients pay directly for sessions. If your insurance plan includes out-of-network benefits, Summit can provide a superbill for you to submit for possible reimbursement.
A psychologist has doctoral-level training in assessment, diagnosis, research, and psychotherapy. While “therapist” is a broader term, a psychologist often brings additional clinical training for complex presentations. Dr. Layne’s background is especially suited for complex trauma, treatment-resistant patterns, moral injury, and treatment of veterans with PTSD.
Trauma may be complex when it comes from repeated, prolonged, or layered experiences rather than one isolated event. It may show up as emotional overwhelm, shutdown, hypervigilance, relational difficulty, dissociation, shame, or feeling stuck after previous therapy. Summit helps clients understand these responses as meaningful adaptations, not personal failures.
