(he/him)
Hello, my name is Abram Andersen. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have worked in the field for 12 years. I strongly believe healthy relationships are the foundation for a happy healthy life. Relationships really matter! Sometimes things like depression, anxiety, and trauma can get in the way of experiencing relationships to their fullest. I am a holistic therapist who specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). With the CBT approach, we say, “Thoughts create feelings and feelings create behaviors or actions. We can work together to help you better understand your thoughts, feelings, and why you might behave as you do.
First sessions will include an assessment, and an opportunity to get to know one another better and evaluate if the client therapist fit is works.
Most people in today’s world are not looking to come to therapy indefinitely. People seeking therapy are seeking relief of symptoms, not in three years from now, but right now. Typically speaking, relief of symptoms is not a right now thing, but it can be a sooner than later thing. I have seen many people make progress quickly with the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I feel one of my greatest strengths is to quickly build rapport with clients, and provide some immediate tools that may help to reduce symptoms in a timely manner and get one back to enjoying life.
Abram has an extensive experience working with individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and relational issues. Abram has also worked with couples extensively and had completed section 1 of the Gottman training. Abram invites you to come on a therapeutic journey of healing.
