There is this thing that has been weighing on you for years. While you have been able to keep it at bay for so many years it's now peeking its ugly head. You can't seem to manage relationships or even your job. Survival mode is all you know. You don't have to keep suffering. Relief and confidence can once again be you. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) utilizes the brain to help heal the pain you have dealt with all your life. Healing can finally be possible. EMDR is integrated into the therapy process through weekly sessions or through intensives to really work through those issues in a condensed capacity.

EMDR, a therapy trauma technique, offers a structured yet flexible approach to processing trauma that can lead to profound healing and growth. The combination of cognitive processing, emotional engagement, and bilateral stimulation helps restructure the way traumatic memories are stored and integrated in the brain. By restructuring the trauma, people feel a sense of relieve and are able to work through triggers easier in everyday life.
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, NCC, CPCS, LPC
Trauma can change the way you feel about yourself and others, and change the way you interact with the world. It can inadvertently lead to volatile or abusive relationships or even exploitation. You are taking a brave step in getting help. I have over a decade of experience to assist you in working through your trauma using trauma-informed techniques, Person-Centered approaches, and Cognitive Behavioral techniques.
I offer support for individuals dealing with trauma and PTSD, providing a safe, compassionate environment for healing, regaining control, and finding hope for a brighter future, fostering resilience and well-being.
I support clients who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event. I help you recognize and manage your triggers, so you can regain control of your life.
Healing from trauma can help you feel more in control of your life and feel entitled to your own thoughts and feelings, develop closer relationships with others, relieve trauma symptoms, an learn healthy ways to re-connect with your body. Joie de Vivre offers a variety of effective treatment interventions for women who have survived traumatic events. We want you to know that you will not always feel like this, and we are here to help until you feel better.
Traumatic experiences can occur at any point in the lifespan, and be acute, chronic, or complex. Humans are inherently deeply resilient, yet without treatment, the aftereffects of trauma can last for years, causing physical or emotional symptoms, impacting our sense of safety in the world, and influencing our relationships in unpredictable ways.
Trauma is a pesky voice in your subconscious telling you to be afraid in the current life even though the fear is in the past. Recognizing that "now" is safe is imperative to healing and moving forward in a healthy way. I can help clients process and heal from their past which opens the door to a more joyful present and a future full of possibilities
Traumatic events often leave a lasting imprint on your life. Sometimes emotional healing from trauma can occur somewhat naturally, as life goes on. At other times, trauma leaves a more indelible impression on a person’s life by causing frequent bouts of emotional distress, impaired judgement, and even physiological symptoms. I employ Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, a form of psychotherapy developed for and scientifically proven to help people suffering from the effects of trauma and PTSD.
