Hi, I’m Dr. Jeri Cox Do you feel as if you are not your best self? Are you wanting to improve your self-confidence and being. Are you ready to recognize and be the resilient individual you truly are? I help individuals who desire to better manage life challenges and hardships whether from current situations or from past experiences that impact current functioning. We will use a holistic approach that is designed to meet your individualized needs and goals and empowering you to be the individual you want to be. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, or experiencing cycles of anxiety and depression, I am here to help. It is time for you to make the choice to live a healthier life, to embrace the resilient person you are. You deserve a safe space to work through life’s challenges. I will meet with you with compassion, empathy and evidenced-based techniques so you can take off the mask you have been wearing for so long and be your authentic self. Looking forward to helping you start a new chapter in your life.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Once your goals for therapy have been developed, I will provide a safe and confidential environment for you to share and process thoughts, feelings and experiences. You will be the driver of your therapy process. I will meet you where you are and help empower you toward goal achievement through implementation of evidenced based interventions. The ultimate goal from day one is to help you achieve your set goals, have healthy tools to manage life stressors and challenges independently and ultimately living a healthier life. The frequency in which we will meet for sessions will be dependent on your need and healing process. As you improve and achieve your goals we will review your progress, change or add goals as needed, or once you feel ready end the therapy process.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

The primary therapeutic approaches I use are existential, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Existential- Existential therapy approach focuses on self-determination and meaning making of an individual . Each person has the capacity for self-awareness, meaning and purpose are ever evolving as insight and development are ever changing. DBT- Dialectal behavioral therapy approach focuses on the development four key skill areas; mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. CBT- Cognitive behavioral therapy premise is that thoughts and perceptions influence behavior. Key focus areas include the development of skills to manage dysfunctional emotions, behaviors, and thoughts.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Primary areas of expertise include assisting those who experience cycles of anxiety, uncertainties, depression and past experiences impacting current functioning.
