EMDR Therapists in Platteville, WI

Living with unprocessed trauma memories is difficult and overwhelming. It can take us to places that are hard to face and impact our daily lives. Unless we take steps to transform our trauma experiences into remote memories we are never free from the harmful impact these old events have on the quality of our lives. EMDR coupled with talk therapy offers us a way to process those unwanted memories, learn tools for coping and allow us to create the change we want to see.

Waitlist for new clients! Hello and welcome to my practice where we can embark on your therapeutic journey together in a safe and compassionate space. In my practice, I'm dedicated to providing a space where you can feel truly seen and understood. My primary goal is to create a supportive and safe environment so we can explore the signs that point toward healing, inner wisdom and self-honoring. My approach is trauma-sensitive and collaborative, grounded in Person-Centered counseling. Drawing from an attachment-based lens, I integrate elements of mindfulness, interpersonal processing, and cognitive/narrative therapies.

My areas of interest include trauma, grief, anxiety, stress management, parenting, depression, divorce, attention deficit disorder, and family related mental health issues. I have been trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR,) and Brain Spotting.

Openings on Tuesdays/Wednesdays. Are you ready for a happier, healthier, more connected life? Sometimes we just need a little guidance in order to find our own health! I am a trilingual (English, American Sign Language, Spanish) multicultural counselor working with individuals, partners, and families who want to heal, grow, change, trust, let go, and/or thrive. Sessions are designed to support your unique needs while in relationship with yourself, the therapist, animals, other people, and the world around you. Ultimately, I facilitate the growth of your own inherent, natural wisdom. I offer retreats and intensives for clients, too!

The narratives of life can leave us feeling rough and jagged. Sometimes we need someone to come alongside us as we navigate the rapids, and discover the beauty and new form waiting in still waters. I consider being a part of this process to be a privilege and an honor. I serve children birth-adolescence, families, and adults. I am able to address a variety of needs, with a specialization in serving those who have experienced trauma. I provide an encouraging, supportive, attuned, relationship-focused environment, that is mindful of culture, and, if desired, incorporates faith into the work.

You are the expert on your life and your own experiences. Together, we will create space for you to heal. Although at times you may feel broken, you aren’t in need of fixing; you are navigating systems that are unsatisfactory, which can leave anyone feeling fragmented. Support is the driving factor for change, and I aim to support you through whatever changes present themselves on your path to feeling whole. My clients begin to feel a sense of wholeness that comes from accepting their thoughts and feelings as valid parts of a human experience. These moments of connection in therapy extend into relationships with others and yourself.

Not currently accepting new clients. My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. I achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a plan with you that Awakens your Vitality.

I am honored to partner with you on your journey to your best self.

Having borderline personality disorder can be excruciating. Relationships feel scary and unpredictable, and like you might not survive another rejection. Sometimes things feel amazing and sometimes they feel so bad you don’t even want to be alive. It can be hard to find a therapist who understands, and who has the training to work with your specific needs. Together, we can work towards feeling more confident, peaceful, and sure of who you are.

You are my ideal client if you would like to rejoin your life. Are you feeling stuck after taking more than your share of hits in life? I would love to walk with you to help you find long-term healing and recovery from traumatic events.

Our work together focuses on self-compassion, awareness and setting boundaries in our lives. I believe this work helps bring long lasting, positive changes. Together we explore current issues, traumas, life struggles and transitions to facilitate greater understanding and change. My hope is to build relationships and work collaboratively in a judgement-free zone. I treat a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, trauma, and interpersonal issues.

I am happy to travel along with you as you embark upon your healing journey. I strive to meet you within a space where you can safely explore your internal world. While it can be difficult to discover your inner voice and experience a felt sense of safety, each therapy session will give you a chance to reconnect with yourself and find what gives you meaning.

I'm Dayne with QUEST Counseling & Consultation Center, and I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC) experienced in working with children, teens, and adults. I believe everyone is capable of creating their own change and finding wellness. My approach to treatment involves working collaboratively with clients to embrace their own strengths while learning new strategies to overcome past and present life stressors. I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and believe that developing a supportive, non-judgmental space, built on mutual trust and respect, creates the strongest environment for healing and growth.

Are you experiencing feelings of anxiety and depression? Do you struggle with negative beliefs about yourself? Is it hard for you to make sense of your emotions? I have experience working with people with depression and anxiety disorders, complex-PTSD and trauma. I focus on emotions with my clients and can help you get curious about the information your emotions are trying to communicate. I approach my work with a trauma lens, I am trained in EMDR and I am IFS-informed (Internal Family Systems or Parts work).

The most important relationship you have is with yourself. My goal is to support you in finding healing and wholeness by re-connecting you with who you really are at the core: before the trauma happened, before life changed unexpectedly, before the conditioning that made you feel less-than, underneath the lingering depression and anxiety. These are all roadblocks on your unique journey, and together we'll explore them so that you can move into your best life, with awareness and peace.

As a therapist, I believe that everyone has the power to move towards healing and growth. I provide a client centered approach and strongly believe in the therapeutic relationship to help guide the work at your own pace. For my youngest clients, I value play as a form of communication to share thoughts and feelings about the world. I offer space to process all of the thoughts and emotions that come along throughout life and hope that my clients leave therapy with a better understanding of themselves.
