Joelle Arlt
If you're the one everyone else relies on but inside you feel overwhelmed, anxious or disconnected, you're not alone. You may function well on the outside while feeling exhausted or stuck inside. My approach is trauma informed, spiritually open and grounded in EMDR, CBT, ACT, IFS Parts Work and Polyvagal theory. I'm straightforward and compassionate, and we go at your pace. Healing isn't about fixing you--it is about reconnecting with who you are and what you deserve.
First session
The first session is typically a full history, creating goals, and getting to know each other and making a plan for how to approach your therapeutic journey.
Strengths
Work with me may include EMDR, nervous system regulation, somatic and parts work or cognitive approaces such as CBT and ACT. I also draw from 26 years as a life coach to support identity shifts, mindset change, and forward movement. We will choose what fits your pace, goals, and nervous system.
Ideal clients
My ideal client is tired of being the strong one and doing life on survival mode. My client does not need to have to explain everything perfectly or have it all figured out. When you are ready to stop just coping and ready to go to the root cause and start healing, I am here to help and excited to support you on your journey.
