Hi! I'm Lindsey. Do you struggle with overwhelming thoughts that have impacted your daily life? Are you struggling with daily reminders of past events? Are there days when you feel burdened by even getting out of bed? I collaborate with my clients that are suffering with depression, anxiety and PTSD to develop coping skills that lead them to their goals of being a happier more fulfilled version of themselves. Together we will work to establish your goals and the pathway we will take to get to those goals. Along the way, I will educate you on coping skills, to include, deep breathing and mindfulness to meet the days challenges head with deeper understanding and a sense of accomplishment in your growing capabilities. Whether you struggle with depression, anxiety, PTSD or other concerns I'm here to assist you on your journey. Asking for help is often one of the hardest things that we can do, but also one of the most important and rewarding acknowledgments as well. I look forward to working with and helping you to overcome the challenges that you are facing!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During your first session we will spend time getting to know one another and developing a comfortable environment that promotes open and honest communication. We will work to discuss your history and the concerns that have brought you to therapeutic interventions. Following this first session as we continue to build a therapeutic rapport I will educate you on self care, mindfulness and other relaxation techniques for high stress times. We will establish your treatment goals and the path to take to reach those, then taking steps toward those goals.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Common treatment methods that I use are, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Trauma Informed Care, Solution Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy and Reality Therapy.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have spent my career specializing in clients who have experienced extensive and/or complex trauma. I have a passion for helping those that are storing their trauma within themselves and looking for ways to rid themselves of their struggles as a result of their trauma.
