Helping you find peace again

I'm Thor Fjell, a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and the lasting effects that difficult experiences leave on our nervous systems, our relationships, and our sense of self.

I work with adults who are ready to do the hard work that is necessary to overcome the pain of the past. I use evidence-based therapy tools to help you reprocess traumatic events and take back your life.

All sessions are delivered via secure video telehealth, making quality trauma therapy accessible from wherever you are in Arizona, Florida, or Oregon.

EMDR Therapy

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing — one of the most well-researched treatments available for PTSD. Helps your nervous system process traumatic memories and move toward stability.

Internal Family Systems

IFS helps us explore and heal the different parts of yourself — protective parts, wounded parts, exiled emotions — and reconnect with your core Self as a source of clarity and compassion.

Polyvagal Therapy

A body-based approach rooted in understanding that the nervous system constantly scans for safety or threat. Trauma leaves people stuck in chronic states of fight-or-flight or shutdown, and Applied Polyvagal Therapy uses techniques to help clients build the capacity to regulate their nervous system.

ACT Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is an evidence-based approach that helps people develop psychological flexibility — the ability to be present with difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them. Rather than trying to eliminate pain or anxiety, ACT teaches clients to accept what they cannot change, clarify their core values, and commit to actions that move their life in a meaningful direction.

DBT Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy is widely used for treating trauma, depression, anxiety, and relationship difficulties. DBT teaches four core skill sets — mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness — giving clients concrete tools to manage overwhelming feelings in the moment while building longer-term stability and healthier relationships.

Attachment-based Therapy

Attachment Theory explores how our earliest relationships with caregivers shape the way we connect with others and regulate our emotions throughout life. When those early bonds are disrupted by neglect, inconsistency, or trauma, we can develop insecure attachment patterns that show up in adult relationships as anxiety, avoidance, or difficulty trusting others.

Have I experienced trauma?

Many people say "it wasn't that big of a deal" or "others have had it worse." But you don't have to be in combat to develop trauma symptoms. Trauma happens when an experience continues to negatively affect your emotions and life — long after it's over.

Common causes include:

Violence Loss & Grief Sexual Assault Divorce Childhood Neglect Domestic Violence Car Accident Medical Trauma Military Service Bullying Birth Trauma First Responder Natural Disaster Workplace Trauma
The struggle is real

60% of Men & 50% of Women experience at least one traumatic event in their lifetime — yet most never receive treatment.

Common trauma-related symptoms

Constantly feeling like something bad is going to happen
Efforts to avoid painful feelings or interactions
Nightmares
Flashbacks
A sense of feeling disconnected from yourself and the world around you
Negative beliefs about one's self
Feeling irritable for seemingly no reason
Disrupted sleep
Difficulty concentrating
Intrusive thoughts
Intense, emotionally reactive behavior
Heightened startle response

The good news: there are highly effective treatments. There is a light at the end of the tunnel — don't give up.

What clients say

"

In two sessions, Thor has been a greater help to my mental health and my mental and emotional standing than any of my past therapists had done in months. My biggest gripe? I didn’t get connected with him sooner. Instead of dreading therapy every week, I actively look forward to it. Thor has completely changed my perspective on therapy and has become a huge support for me. I look forward to many more meetings with Thor as we work through all the crap of life. Thanks Thor!

Thor is hands-down the best therapist I have ever found, and I've worked with a few. Over the last year he has helped me empower myself to make significant life changes that have drastically improved my quality of life, self esteem and self respect. I would recommend him to anyone.
