Anne Marie Prewitt
Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Texas. I specialize in the human condition. I believe all humans are messy... imperfect... and phenomenal! Although I am trained in counseling modalities, my philosophy of helping is to collaborate with you to discover what has shaped you and brought you to this point in your life.
I believe all humans are messy... imperfect... and phenomenal!
My goal is to sojourn with you in this counseling process as you find your true self.
First session
In our first session, I will spend time understanding what brings you to therapy as well as a little about your current circumstances and goals. Together we will discuss where to start and develop a plan to get you moving in the direction you desire.
Strengths
As a therapist, I work hard to understand your experience. As you share your struggles and strengths, I will tap into my training as a therapist AND my experience as a human. My goal is to bring not just a laundry list of modalities, but show up as one human assisting another.
Ideal clients
I enjoy working with all phases of the adult lifespan. With each phase come challenges and joys that are unique to that season of life. Being an older therapist, I have a different view of the life stages than I did in my younger years. As a result, I work well with individuals in many phases of life. I understand the challenges of young adults who are just beginning adulthood as well as those who may be in the middle years who wonder what is next. Individuals can feel stuck at any phase in life. Understanding your life experiences, values, and goals is key to a healthier and more fulfilled life.
Treatment methods
Adlerian
I am an Adlerian therapist at heart which doesn't mean much to most people. Basically, I look at your past experiences to see how they have shaped your life. My goal is to collaborate with you to understand how you have adapted to your life experiences and assist you in strengthening what works for you and change what doesn't.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
As we journey through life, we develop internal dialog that drives our beliefs and behaviors. Many times, these thoughts are so automatic that we do not even realize they are there. We just react based on a learned belief from our past experiences. My goal is to collaborate with you to discover your internal dialog and keep what serves you and change what does not.
Attachment-based
All humans are biologically wired to attach both physically and emotionally to caregivers in childhood. As your therapist, I will work to discover how you attached to your caregivers in childhood and how you attach now in both romantic and platonic relationships. Childhood attachment shapes how we attach in adulthood. However, it is not a life sentence - even if you did not have a secure attachment style in childhood. I will partner with you to understand how your attachment style served you at one point in your life and how you can securely attach in adulthood.
