“When I was first referred to Felice for trauma therapy, I didn't know that to exect and hadn't heard of EMDR. Felice was patient, but assertive and never condescending. She didn't talk to me like I didn't know my own name. She explained EMDR to me in a way that made sense on my terms and never made me feel bad for anything we discussed. I have MANY therapists over the past 20 yrs, but never met one like Felice. She knew how to "read the room" with me and how to bring me back during any episode. This is what makes her so great at what she does. Getting an actual medical diagnosis of "Trauma" and PTSD was very eye opening and mind blowing. Felice found the right ways to really help me make sense of it and understand the multitude of feelings and emotions that followed. My life has completely changed for the better since receiving treatment with her. The skills she has shown and taught me have helped me to get through episodes that I never was able to deal with before. Highly recommedn!”

Getting to know Felice Block

Felice Block, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, understands what her trauma clients are experiencing as she spent seventeen years in an abusive marriage. “I was married to an emotionally, verbally, spiritually, and financially abusive man,” she said, “It took ten years of therapy to get to the point that I was strong enough to leave.” Since then, Felice changed careers, remarried, and discovered a trauma therapy she utilizes not only to help her clients but also teaches other therapists to do the same. Felice began her career as a special education teacher focused on students with emotional problems. She particularly enjoyed working one-on-one with the most challenging children which led her to a graduate degree in counseling from Adler Institute, now Adler University. She wrote her thesis while on bedrest during her pregnancy with twins, and shortly after her children were born, she opened her own private practice. At the same time, her marriage deteriorated, and Felice recognized change was essential. “My daughter was pigeon toed and needed really good shoes. He didn’t want to give me the money for those shoes, and that’s when I realized I needed to empower myself and find a full-time job,” she said. She became the Executive Director of Warren Township Youth Services and later served as the Director of Response, a JCFS agency that provides counseling and support for adolescents. After returning to private practice in the early 2000s, Felice learned about Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, a highly effective and efficient method to help people overcome the lingering effects of trauma, and became a certified EMDR therapist.

Felice is a truly gifted therapist. I'm a therapist myself and only trust her for my own therapeutic journey. I cannot recommend her enough; you'll be in great hands.
Felice is a warm, caring professional that I credit with effecting significant change in my life. She created a safe environment for me to fully open up. Her expertise with EMDR helped me so much more than talk therapy alone ever could. I presented to Felice with some painful experiences I had to work through and she was also able to help me identify other issues that I was not capable of seeing on my own... and then helped me work through ALL of them. I will always be grateful for our time together as I learned so much from her and my life now operates on a completely different level, so much peace, clarity and happiness. Imagine a therapist who is so effective that you don't need to keep seeing them forever. Forever grateful.
