Getting to know Elyse DeJohnett

I specialize in helping individuals who have experienced trauma find healing, strength, and a renewed sense of peace. My approach is compassionate and collaborative — I believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you are truly heard and supported. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels comfortable for you, using evidence-based approaches to process past experiences, manage triggers, and build healthy coping strategies. My goal is to empower you to move forward with resilience, self-compassion, and hope for the future. I believe healing begins in a safe and supportive space where you feel heard and understood. My approach is trauma-focused and tailored to your unique needs. I draw on evidence-based practices, such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness strategies, to help you process difficult experiences and develop tools that promote resilience and emotional balance. I view therapy as a collaborative journey — you are the expert on your own life, and I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, guidance, and encouragement. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on building coping strategies, restoring a sense of safety, and empowering you to create meaningful change. I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma, including survivors of domestic violence. I also support clients navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My practice includes working with adults who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or in need of a safe space to process their experiences and reclaim their sense of self. I have a strong passion for helping survivors of domestic violence rebuild safety, self-worth, and empowerment. In addition, I work with clients facing stress management and self-esteem concerns.My approach is always tailored to each client’s unique needs, culture, and values, to foster long-term healing and resilience.
