I'm Celeste Himanek — a Licensed Professional Counselor, EMDRIA Certified Therapist, and EMDRIA Approved Consultant based in Cave Junction, Oregon. For more than 20 years I've been helping individuals navigate trauma, grief, infertility, and life transitions with clinical precision and deep human care.

My work draws on EMDR, somatic approaches, and intensive retreat formats designed for people who are serious about healing — and ready to commit to it.

Research-backed trauma therapy from an EMDRIA Certified Therapist and EMDRIA Approved Consultant — one of the field's highest designations.

Immersive therapy experiences that accomplish in days what traditional weekly therapy takes months to reach. For people ready to move.

Specialized work for veterans, first responders, medical professionals, and funeral workers whose service has left marks standard therapy misses.

A brief call to learn about you, answer your questions, and see if we're a good fit. No commitment required.

Together we'll identify the right approach — weekly sessions, an intensive, or Resilience by Design — and build a plan.

Therapy is work. It can also be the most important thing you've ever done for yourself.

Working with Celeste changed the trajectory of my life. She helped me find words for what I was carrying — and then helped me let go.

I accomplished more in three days than I had in a year of weekly sessions elsewhere. Celeste is extraordinary.

As a first responder I never thought therapy was for me. Resilience by Design changed that. Celeste speaks my language.
