As an EMDR Counselor, Joe wants to help you see your own wisdom, draw out your strengths, and develop your own solutions. EMDR is a natural way to heal from trauma, and Joe’s training and expertise in EMDR and other therapy tools means that you’ll be able to tackle whatever you’re facing with the right support.
Joe models personal integrity by actively and openly addressing his own lived experiences, fears, and biases by constantly seeking to improve, heal, and move forward with peace and resilience. His superpower is his willingness to show up with clients and colleagues as a full human - to mess up, repair, and show vulnerability and strength in equal measure.
Clients have strengths they may not have awareness of. We want to identify those strengths, both in building self worth and confidence but also in identity formation. We also “speak” from a strengths perspective, always holding the dignity of a client both when working with them and when we are not.
