Jenelle Coolidge is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and is a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional level two ( CCTP-II) I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, trauma, and chronic health conditions. I also like to be an active member to help support awareness and I am part of the National Alliance for Eating Disorders( Orlando Affiliates) and a member of the international association of eating disorder professionals. I also enjoy taking an integrative approach with clients and mixing several techniques such as EMDR, parts work, ACT, DBT, expressive arts, and trauma focused techniques.
In the first session we will have brief introductions followed by an intake assessment. After that we discuss follow up sessions and recommended plan.
I have a variety of experience in the mental health field, I have compassion for those who are hurting, I am also a recovered clinician from an eating disorder, and I am living with an autoimmune disorder. I want clients to know that I want to give them hope during their hardest moments.
I was trained in 2021 and have been using it weekly since I believe in it's effective use in healing clients.
I highly believe it helps increase cognitive flexibility and emotional tolerance.
I believe in its ability to help the client address thoughts that are causing harm and discomfort.
I try to incorporate DBT techniques in each session for emotional tolerance and cognitive tolerance. I also find it helpful for codependency and people pleasing.
I used this trauma focused technique while working in community mental health with at high risk youth.
