Understanding Trauma and PTSD, and How Mental Health with JoJo Can Help

 

Understanding Trauma and PTSD

Trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) stem from distressing events that overwhelm the brains ability to cope. Symptoms often include flashbacks, nightmares, high levels of anxiety, emotional numbness, and hypervigilance, which can severely impact daily functioning. 

At Mental Health with JoJo, we offer personalized, evidence-based treatments such as the combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) & Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). With this specific combination of therapeutic techniques we are able to help clients process traumatic experiences, reduce symptoms, and reclaim control over their lives.

Here are the specific steps we take through the use of both CBT & ART: 

  • Identify physical and emotional symptoms associated with trauma.
  • Identify present day triggers (memories, anniversaries, responses, individuals, etc).
  • Identify root triggers with the use of Accelerated Resolution Therapy. This is where we are able to effectively identify trigger to trauma. Example: A clients severe fear of being alone can stem from feelings of rejection they felt at a young age by peers. 
  • Once the trauma and triggers have been connected, we process them utilizing guided imagery and eye movements within the A.R.T technique. 
  • By the end of each A.R.T session we are able to gauge if more sessions will be needed in the future based on levels of symptom intensity. 

Individuals are able to process their traumatic memories without the intensity of having to use traditional therapy. At Mental Health with JoJo we help you regain a sense of safety and well-being.

My experience so far with Yoenia has been great. I originally started out with talk therapy with someone else but I did some research to further explore other therapy options and ended up finding Yoenia on TikTok. She’s been very thorough, straightforward, and gives me the accountability I need. I have yet to feel confused and unsatisfied with our sessions. So I’m grateful to have found her and look forward to many other progressive sessions.

Having Yoenia as a therapist has been insightful and progressive. I came across her videos on TikTok and I identify myself with most of the topics she spoke about. I knew from there I found a match with someone that understands my upbringings and struggles. She challenges me and thanks to that I’ve noticed a change in my mental health. I’m so grateful to have her as my therapist.

Jojo is my first therapist and has greatly helped me in ways I didn’t think possible. As a busy mom who is pregnant and in school she has been very flexible with her appointments. She has untangled my mental mess and improved my overall quality of life. I recommended to anyone and everyone.

Jojo is a great professional! She will definitely take you out of your comfort zone and will work on whatever issue you want to fix and make you have a better picture after all. Honestly it feels like talking to a friend so it makes therapy 100 times better.

Working with a younger person has been a great experience because she has insight to dynamics that effect me as a young person, which I think would be difficult to wrap your head around from someone too distant from the generation. Anything that she might not have been prepared to encounter, we have learned together and I can confidently say that my life and understanding has been better off. I can see a light at the end of the tunnel for self-sufficiency and it won't be too long until she releases me to fend for myself and see how that works at this stage in my life.

I started with Jojo feeling like I was at zero. I've been in therapy with her for about 4 months and it's the best thing that's ever happened to me. Jojo has been an angel in my life! The best therapy sessions I've ever had. Today, I feel much better. We need more therapist like her. She is a 20 out of 10⭐️!
