We are open to the presence of pets during online sessions, recognizing the therapeutic benefits of animal companionship. Discuss this with us at your initial session.

How do you involve clients in their treatment planning, and can I actively participate in setting goals for therapy?

Your active participation is crucial. We involve clients in the treatment planning process, and you can actively participate in setting goals for therapy. Your preferences and input guide the therapeutic journey, whether you choose online or in-person sessions.

Here are 3 Very Good Reasons to Choose Us as Your Mental Health Services Provider:



Transparent and Collaborative Treatment Planning

Imagine a therapeutic process where we sit together, openly discussing your concerns, goals, and the path we’ll take toward healing. This transparent approach means you’re not in the dark about your treatment plan; instead, you’re an active participant, shaping the direction of your own progress.

Our collaborative treatment planning involves a dialogue between us, where your insights and preferences are valued. Together, we’ll craft a roadmap for your healing journey, taking into account the unique aspects of your experiences and the goals you aim to achieve through EMDR.



Empathetic and Non-Judgemental

Being non-judgmental is not just a promise but a practice in our sessions. No matter the nature of your experiences or the emotions you bring into the room, our role as therapist is to provide a safe space free from criticism. You can share openly, knowing that you won’t face judgment but instead find support and understanding.

Our goal is not to impose judgment but to help you navigate the complexities of your experiences with compassion. By embracing empathy and non-judgment, our sessions become a refuge—a place where you can be your authentic self, explore your emotions, and work towards healing.



Holistic Wellness and Skill Development

Holistic wellness means we consider the interconnectedness of various aspects of your life—mental, emotional, physical, and even spiritual. In our sessions, we explore not just the symptoms but the root causes, fostering a comprehensive understanding that lays the foundation for enduring well-being.

EMDR, as a powerful tool, becomes part of a larger strategy for your overall wellness. We work together to identify and cultivate skills that empower you to navigate life’s challenges effectively. These skills serve as valuable tools, enhancing your resilience and equipping you to face future stressors with confidence. EMDR, within this holistic framework, becomes your catalyst for change.

We’re here to illuminate the path towards your most authentic, joyful self.

We are fervent believers in the capacity of EMDR to facilitate a realignment with your authentic self—an authentic self often obscured by the weight of past experiences and unprocessed emotions. EMDR provides a therapeutic landscape where the echoes of the past can be gently processed, leading to a profound transformation that allows the genuine essence of who you are to shine through.

The present moment holds the potential for a significant shift in your emotional landscape, and seizing this opportunity is an investment in your own happiness. It’s an acknowledgment that you deserve to experience the warmth of well-being, to rediscover joy, and to live authentically.

We’re Very Good.

  Robert is an expert at his craft and truly cares… I have been working with him for about a year now and my life has transformed. Things I never thought I’d be able to do because of trauma have simply gone away in the most healthy way. I cannot thank him enough and he is an expert on dealing with traumatic events and talks to you as a human with a sense of humor.

  Looking for counselor who I liked took forever it seemed but once I met the counselors here I knew I was in the right place. They are very caring but easy to get along with. I was looking for anxiety therapy and depression therapy and they help me overcome these issues. I have been going for about 6 months now and I have couldn’t imagine what my life would be if I didn’t get the help I needed.

Once we met a few times in the office I decided to do therapy online. It was quick and painless to set up and since we met in person it’s like we never missed a beat.

I would recommend this place for anyone who is looking for quality counseling by real people. They have changed my life for the better. No hesitation to recommend them, the best therapy in Fort, Myers.

  My daughter has been seeing Elena for two years after suffering from emotional and physical trauma. My daughter has made great strides in her self-worth, critical thinking, confidence and emotional processing throughout this time. Elena and her EMDR treatments are a complete game-changer and I will forever be grateful to her for helping get my daughter on a path for true healing. Elena is an absolute professional! We’ve had parental sessions with me and also accommodated mother/daughter sessions with us that have given us the gift of in-depth understanding for positive changes in our relationship. If you’re on the fence of treatment or are looking for someone with a better connection, your future will thank you for seeking Elena’s services today. I’ll be forever grateful to her for her help.
