Hi there! Welcome to Revive Counseling LLC, where I believe in the power of personal growth and positive change. My name is Victoria Byler, and I’m a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Ohio. With my experience and knowledge, I specialize in supporting men on their journey to emotional well-being.
Men often face societal pressures to suppress their emotions and maintain a stoic facade, inhibiting their ability to be vulnerable. I am passionate about assisting men in embracing their emotions, empowering them to forge deeper connections and communicate effectively. Teaching men techniques to express themselves without resorting to anger is crucial. Modalities such as Expressive Arts, and EMDR offer valuable avenues for therapy, particularly for men who struggle with verbal expression or introspection. These approaches engage various areas of the brain, facilitating healing and self-discovery.
I’m here to support you on your journey towards healing and feeling empowered. I offer transformative therapy services tailored to your individual needs and goals. So, feel free to ask me anything – I’m happy to chat and see how I can help!

Frequently Asked Questions
Online therapy has emerged as a powerful alternative to traditional in-person sessions, and research suggests it can be just as effective for many individuals.

In the best interest of my clients' treatment process, I do not currently accept insurance. However, some clients may be able to obtain reimbursement for part of their treatment costs.

Traumas and emotional problems can cast a long shadow, impacting your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Therapy offers a compassionate hand to break through these shadows. Imagine a safe, confidential space where you can discuss your struggles openly and honestly, free from judgment. This is the foundation therapy provides, allowing you to explore difficult emotions and memories related to trauma in a healthy way.
In addition, beyond simply talking, therapy empowers you with concrete tools and strategies. Your therapist can help you understand how past experiences shape your present, offering techniques like EMDR to process trauma and move forward. Also, you'll learn healthy coping mechanisms for managing difficult emotions like anxiety, depression, and anger. This equips you to tackle challenges head-on, fostering resilience and a sense of control over your life.
Remember, therapy is a journey, not a destination. With ongoing support and guidance, you can heal, build stronger relationships, and ultimately, overcome the obstacles that stand in your way. So, if you're struggling, know that help is available and you don't have to face these challenges alone.
Unfortunately, there's no "ideal" therapy length or frequency that fits everyone. It depends on various factors like the specific issue, severity, individual progress, and personal goals. Typically, therapy starts weekly and adjusts based on needs. Short-term therapy (10-20 sessions) might address specific issues. Complex challenges or deep-seated issues may require longer-term therapy (months or even years).
Person-Centered, EMDR, Expressive Arts, Grief therapies, and more. I meet you where you are, and help you achieve what you want out of your personal goals. I think of these modalities like ingredients, and each individual receives their personal entree.
I am an out of network provider (OONP). Doing this allows me to provide quality care and specialties for you. My rates are carefully chosen to maintain certifications, continue education for up to date services of care, reduce burn-out, maintain overhead costs, and access fair living wages.
Typically, each session is a 55-minute duration.
Therapy is an investment. Most importantly, an investment in yourself. Variables that impact duration of services is based on severity of symptoms, goals, and motivation levels.
Revive was created with healing in mind. When we experience trauma we can feel disconnected from ourselves and our world. My hope is to provide guidance, tools, and support in order for you to feel safe and restored. My logo(mushrooms) and name, Revive, symbolize resilience; the ability to grow and withstand, to come back from defeat.
