From the first moment of successfully leaving our mother's body and beginning to breath on our own, we began a life journey that mirrors our own epic story. This epic is similar to those I used to watch as a child at the Sunday evening movies. Usually a hero, for instance, Hercules, would be engaged in ongoing event-filled days of danger, challenge, and conquest. Along the way there were characters who attempted to thwart his efforts or support his quest. His focus remained resolute and steadfast and was usually met with success. If not doing that hour definitely by part two he would be the victor. Our life challenges, however, are not usually met with the excitement of a movie; and success in overcoming them is not usually with one or even two hours. But like old movies, our challenges involve obstacles, dangers, wonders, and successes of varying dimensions. These challenges for many of us serve to push us forward to take another breath of life and to continue our personal life walk. From each push, breath, and challenge we can choose to learn and experience success or satisfaction with how we are engaging with life. I am Joy Smith McElveen, a licensed clinical social worker in New Orleans, LA.. Like many of you, my epic story is filled with many challenges of major life disappointments, frustrations, illness, fears, anxiety, depression, and anger. However, there was always a sense of wonder which generated happy times, love, and a glimmer of hope-filled days. Focusing on the wonders of hope helps me put challenges and obstacles into a perspective that allows me build change efforts. I think it is having a sense of hope, the real wonder, that pushes us forward despite the challenge. My practice is based on expanding a search for hope within each person seeking to change direction. Living demands that we must continue to grow. We grow through learning and making changes in our sphere of life. Our emotions and thoughts help or hinder our behavior. It is within these areas we need to evaluate, and search for meaning to be productive and fulfilled. My practice is based on using Dialectical Behavior Therapy undergirded with applications from Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. These approaches have interconnections with how we can choose to change how we think, feel and behave. They each require that the person seeking to make changes do the work and the helper is alongside working with her/him. I would like to be one of the characters in your epic story who supports your quest for change. I have a BA in sociology from Louisiana State University (now UNO); a Master of Social Work from the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor); and a doctorate from Howard University School of Social Work. I have certifications in each treatment approach listed above.

I am a Connecticut Licensed Psychologist with over 40 years of clinical experience and training. My doctorate is from Yeshiva University, having graduated in 1982, with special focus on Cognitive Behavioral interventions. Areas of interest include mindfulness meditation, energetic healing, Internal Family Systems therapy and the use of E.M.D.R.[ eye movement desensitization and reprocessing]. My work with patients is focused on a compassionate, permissive and non judgmental approach to treatment. While traditional talk therapy can be of significant benefit, the approaches I utilize today go beyond the scope of[ talk therapy] and are more comprehensive in how healing takes place. The results sustain over time and the quality of life that gets restored is impressive. I am passionate about these approaches because they work and I get to see the lives of my patients finding pleasure and enjoyment and freedom from the pain that they came into therapy experiencing. I'm married for over 24 years, have 4 grown children and 5 grandchildren. I love to bike, swim, play pickleball and hike throughout the world with my wife. I have taken my camera, shooting photographs in this country, mostly the southwest and throughout the world. Many of those pictures hang in our home in the country, where we also have a cabin in the woods.

“And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation—some fact of my life—unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing, or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in God's world by mistake. Until and unless I accept life completely on life’s terms, I cannot be happy. I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed in me and my attitudes." -Alcoholics Anonymous, Fourth Edition __________________________________ Hello! My name is Jayson Brunelle. As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Connecticut, I’ve provided evidence-based clinical mental health, addiction, and Christian pastoral counseling services in private practice for over a decade. I specialize in treating the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. In addition to employing a wide range of tried-and-true psychotherapeutic approaches—drawing from an eclectic blend of Psychodynamic, Cognitive-Behavioral, Person-Centered, Gestalt, and other therapies—I reject the uncritical acceptance of the prevailing atomistic, reductionistic, and materialistic worldview often presupposed by the medical establishment. My academic background in philosophy and Christian theology has shed a most illuminating light on what I earnestly believe to be the "exalted dignity and vocation" of every human person: “The dignity of the human person is rooted in his creation in the image and likeness of God; it is fulfilled in his vocation to divine beatitude. It is essential to a human being freely to direct himself to this fulfillment... With the help of grace they grow in virtue, avoid sin, and if they sin, they entrust themselves—as did the prodigal son—to the mercy of our Father in heaven.” —Catechism of the Catholic Church This psycho-spiritual essence constitutes the "cor"—the “heart”—of the human person. Often referred to as the “soul,” this fundamentally spiritual, and largely enigmatic, dimension of the psyche, or the Self (widely understood by Scholastic philosophers as consisting of the rational faculties of intellect and free will) enables us to establish and maintain a habitual relationship with the great Guest of our soul. Thus, God invites us into the deepest possible "I–Thou" relationship with Himself. In that transcendent state of "eudaimonia"—or spiritual flourishing—we discover that every human person, created in God's image and likeness, possesses the same profound and inviolable dignity. No one may be treated as a means to an end or as a mere object. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches, each individual is a body-soul composite, lovingly created for communion with God and others. In both my personal and professional experience, the 12-Step model of recovery has proven nothing short of miraculous—especially in the lives of individuals otherwise resistant to treatment. Rooted in the Oxford Movement of the early 20th century (whose influence included great minds such as Carl Jung, C.S. Lewis, and J.R.R. Tolkien), the 12 Steps are themselves deeply rooted in Judeo-Christian Scriptural principles. Many who have walked this path rediscover the truth, goodness, and beauty contained in the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures, often surprised to find there a profoundly sound anthropology. These texts offer not only psychological insight rooted in common sense (sadly, not so common anymore), but also concrete and enduring answers to life’s most profound philosophical questions, as classically framed by Immanuel Kant: 1. What can we know? 2. What should we do? 3. For what may we realistically hope? It has been the great honor of my life to assist clients in their efforts to overcome a wide range of difficulties—including depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, substance and process addictions, low self-esteem, procrastination, maladaptive behavior, identity issues, and more. Many have either fully recovered or regained a substantial degree of control over their lives. Therapy belongs to the client. As such, the therapist’s responsibility is to create a safe, open, and judgment-free space where clients feel free to explore their innermost selves. In this space, they are valued not for what they have or haven’t done, but simply for who they are—as human "beings", not human "doings". It takes immense courage to pursue a better, more fulfilling life. If you’re reading this, I applaud you for taking this step. It’s often said: “Nothing changes if nothing changes.” Should you choose to begin therapy with me, please know that it will be my sincere honor to accompany and support you on your journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal growth.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.
