Michelle Devlugt
I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC), a Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CCMHC), and an EMDRIA-Approved EMDR Therapist (FL/NJ/VA). I attempt to resolve the most dominant and deep-seated challenges within 8 to 12 sessions with short-term counseling, if you are ready for change and the best fit for the intervention.
I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CCMHC) and an EMDRIA-Approved EMDR Therapist (FL/NJ/VA).
My therapeutic approach is based on the individual's specific needs. I also use traditional talk therapy with my clients. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of therapy that enables you to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. I work with adult clients. *NOTE: According to my policy, I do not complete FMLA or disability paperwork at this time.
First session
Intake form and assessments sent to you in the Grow Therapy portal must be completed in order to confirm your appointment. Please complete those prior to the first session. No longer does your past have to be your present. If it is causing you distress, there are interventions that you can use to transcend your suffering. I will review the intake form that you complete before our session and gather any gaps of information needed during the intake to determine if I am able to meet your needs. We will also review the confidentiality form and cancellation policy and best practices for delivery of counseling services through telehealth; Finally, if determined to be a mutually agreeable fit, we will collaborate on your goals and the treatment plan and expected date of completion.
Strengths
My 10 years as a Holistic Wellness Coach have given me unique insight into truly empowering my clients.
Ideal clients
I love to join my adult clients on their journey of healing from trauma, and/or managing symptoms of anxiety and depression and various forms of emotional disturbances that contribute to a lower quality of life; I work best with those who are ready for change and ready to be challenged to do the work necessary to meet their goal/s. My clients need to be prepared to engage in the homework needed to practice the skills that can bring them relief.
