Building Better Mental Health

"Counseling at CARE completely changed how I see myself in all relationships and helped me accept and move past so many traumas that were making life in the present a challenge. I honestly don’t know where I would be today if I hadn’t taken the first step toward and put in the hard work in EMDR. Sonya is the best!"

"Judy was absolutely outstanding at helping me work through some very difficult challenges, ptsd, anxiety, lots of trauma. It has made a night and day difference on how I've healed and additionally been able to handle stressful situations going forward. I would recommend Judy and EMDR therapy in a heartbeat."

"Before I started seeing Sonya I was not myself. My grades were dropping, I was getting no sleep, and I couldn't do what I loved most. My fears and anxiety began to control my life. Once I started working with Sonya and doing EMDR I began to feel like myself again. With her strategies and help I began to feel better. I was returning to school, getting back into sports and most importantly feel like myself. Without Sonya and EMDR I would not be living my best life as I am today."

"I hated one on one therapy and felt like nobody could understand what I was going through or help…then I tried EMDR and oh my goodness. These sessions were the best thing for me and completely changed my life. Please please try EMDR it is 100% worth it!"

"Sonya was awesome. I felt as though I really needed EMDR to help me navigate the trauma I was previously dealing with. I was also offered better coping mechanisms for when I feel stressed in day to day life, not necessarily associated with any post traumatic stress. Because of the therapy I received, I am able to think about my trauma analytically, and no longer get dragged into my memories emotionally. I can finally reflect on the events that took place in my past without feeling the emotional discomfort that previously took me over. Thank you so much! I will be forever grateful to Sonya, and am so thankful for taking the step to finally acknowledge my trauma by seeking EDMR therapy."

"After 10 sessions I am leaving feeling empowered and resilient. I have coping skills that I am able to share with others and they also fell in LOVE with them like I did. I felt respected, validated, and understood. My triggers...do not trigger me anymore. EMDR is HARD work but SO worth it! Do it for you."

"When I first spoke with Sonya about EMDR therapy and explained my situation to her she had told me that she thought she could help my situation in a short amount of time. I had tried some traditional therapy for a month or so but didn't really find it helped me. My first session with Sonya went well but I was still kind of pessimistic. After my 2nd session I truly did start to feel I was making some progress. By my 4th session Sonya felt that I was OK to stop the EMDR therapy and get on with my life with the tools she had given me to work with for my anxiety and depression. I was definitely feeling better but asked Sonya if we could please do 1 more session just for safe keeping. Sonya agreed and that's been over a month and a 1/2 ago and I must say the EMDR and Sonya's counseling is nothing short of a miracle for me. My anxiety and depression is pretty much non existent and I'm getting on with my life. Thank you for giving me my life back Sonya I truly appreciate it."

"EMDR has given me back my life! It is hard to explain but in just a few session I have already noticed a tremulous reduction in frequency and severity of anxiety. It was really starting to wreak havoc in my life, I am very grateful I found this place."

"After many varieties of therapy, EMDR was suggested. Initially it was quite an adventure to rid myself of old habits and thoughts. I personally have had a complete transformation and am back to enjoying a life free of anxiety and panic disorder. Thanks sometimes feels very small for where I am at in life."

"First off, Emily L was great! I had never really utilized mental health services successfully in my life prior to this, nor had I ever heard of EMDR. We were so successful in our sessions that I was barely able to believe the progress we were making, even as I was watching it happen. I was a little bit skeptical of the EMDR at first, but the results were so far beyond even what I thought we could accomplish that I am now a huge advocate for it. The experience was great, and the results speak for themselves. If you're thinking about trying this, just try it, you will not regret it."

"Dear Sonya, I just wanted to reach out to thank you for all of the work you are doing with him (husband)! I am in shock to see such a dramatic change in his anxiety in the last 2 weeks, but specifically in the last 24 hours. He was able to go to bed last night without rechecking the locks or security system even once, which has not happened as long as I have known him! There was an incredible sense of peacefulness going to sleep that has never been present before."

"It’s ok to be vulnerable. Here at Care Counseling you are safe. Safe to release your bottled up emotions & years worth of baggage. You can cry, be angry, swear, just know you are safe, & it’s healthy to process. “Its all ok in the end, if it’s not ok, it’s not the end” -Unknown. "

"I liked my therapist from the start and as things in my life evolved, she was right there helping me cope with all the things I had to deal with. I know I can connect with her if I need to, and feel secure in knowing that. She was wonderful"
