Each moment is a chance to start over and have a new beginning, a new life. Taking the step to come to therapy can be scary for some and for others, it is like coming home to the soul and allowing it all to become clear. You’ll find the word clear in our company name. The Meaning of the Words "C’est Clair"  simply means "it's clear" in French; here at C’est  Clair Holistic therapy we believe in helping individuals find clarity, peace, and a sense of self. Somewhere along the road the connection between body, mind and soul may have been clouded by painful experiences. Allow us to be to help guide you along the path back "home."

Trauma hides behind our problems preventing us from having successful, stress free lives. Trauma hides behind anxiety, depression, PTSD, conflict, addiction, stress, anger, relationship issues, emotional problems, negative thinking and mental health symptoms. At its core it's an ancient defense system that helped you survive whatever difficult experience you were having or are having. It's a central nervous system that chose to protect you, that chose to survive, only you can't access that stuck material alone, and that lack of access, leads to all the symptoms of trauma you might be experiencing.

My ideal client is someone who is in their teens or is an adult who feels that there is an overwhelming force or issues within their life that they need to overcome. Their needs are to be able to identify their issues and then be able to break away from that issues by overcoming them bit by bit. The reason why they would want this is to have the feeling of liberation from mental and emotional stress.

It's painful to see my child upset. I can see that something is wrong, but don't even know where to start. I want to fix it, but I'm feeling lost, anxious, and don't know what to do. They don't go out with friends anymore, grades are dropping, and they rarely come out of their room. When I try to talk to them, they either shut down completely or explode. Then I lose it and it gets only gets worse. I just want my child to be successful and happy, but can't seem to figure out how. I'm worried that something terrible might happen and I would never forgive myself...

Searching for a therapist takes courage. Finding the right fit takes often some work and a bit of luck. However, when the relationship between the patient and therapist goes well, the results can be life-changing. Therapy can empower people to see themselves and others more clearly. This can lead to deepened relationships, symptom relief, and a more hopeful outlook.

First things first, I am NOT your typical therapist. I am a trauma expert who utilizes EMDR for trauma processing. I am NOT interested in you sitting on the couch with me for years. I want you to dive right in, do the hard work, heal and get on with living your full potential in life. Instead of putting out fires, I want to get to the root and figure out what’s causing them in the first place. Once we’ve dug deep, we will see what needs to be repaired, what’s not working and explore what you want to see happen in your life. Then we will focus on rebuilding so that you can be free to live without limitations or blocks.
