As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that everyone has within himself or herself the innate capacity to heal, develop, and grow. I provide clients with a safe, confidential space in which to explore and develop a deeper understanding of their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors in their relationships. We seek therapy for a variety of reasons: to manage life transitions, develop coping skills, establish effective parenting tools, or experience validation and support for who we are. I provide therapeutic support for clients (adults, teens and couples) who may be experiencing depression, anxiety, frustration, anger, relationship challenges, parenting difficulties, and special addictions. Areas of interest: - Anxiety -Parenting issues from toddlers to young adults -Trauma and PTSD -Depression -Stress, Anxiety and Fears -Grief and Loss -Life Stage Transitions -Self Esteem -Gambling and Internet Gambling Addiction

I believe deeply that the foundation of therapy is the relationship between the client and the therapist, which is really just one person helping another. We all experience times in our lives when we feel stuck, overwhelmed, and uncertain about how to move forward. Therapy offers a place where we can receive caring and support, while learning new skills for how to manage the difficulties we are facing. Therapy means that you don't have to face these challenges alone and that you don't have to continue repeating the same mistakes. I believe the most effective therapy is a co-creation between client and therapist that assists you in reaching your goals and in creating the life you've imagined for yourself. Please call today for a free phone consultation, and let's talk about how we can begin this journey together. I specialize in three areas: 1.) I love counseling children and teens, especially those struggling with divorce, trauma, or school difficulties. 2.) I am passionate about working with adults to address depression and anxiety, increase their self-esteem, improve their communication skills, and empower them to take charge of their feelings and needs. 3.) I really enjoying working with MFT Trainees and Interns to assist in their self-discovery on their journey to licensure. I offer a limited number of sliding fee slots for therapy, which means the fee you pay is based on your average monthly income, and I offer reduced rates for MFT students and interns. I also accept Victims of Crime compensation, and I am happy to bill your insurance as an Out-of-Network provider, if your insurance reimburses for that. I provide morning, afternoon, and evening appointments to match your schedule. Please feel free to call or email to further discuss your fee, as well as your needs and availability for therapy.

You are capable of great love, healing, and growth within your relationships. Sometimes though, relationships are the source of our pain and problems. It doesn’t need to be this way–we can move through the pain to peace, connection and fulfillment. Are you looking to improve a relationship with a loved one? Grieving the loss of an important person? Hoping to heal from past trauma or abuse? Wanting to build a better relationship with yourself? You have come to the right place. I would be honored to support you in the significant ways relationships affect our lives. I provide compassionate, effective and affordable couples counseling and individual therapy in Sacramento, CA. I specialize in: COUPLES THERAPY to improve your connection, intimacy and communication; PREMARITAL COUNSELING to build a strong foundation for your future; GRIEF COUNSELING AND TRAUMA THERAPY to find healing from past abuse, trauma and loss; and INDIVIDUAL THERAPY with a focus on improving your relationship with yourself. Therapy can help us improve our relationships with others as well as with ourselves. Often when we take the time and space to explore our experiences, we find increased understanding for ourselves and others. This helps us heal, grow, love, and live fulfilling, meaningful lives.

I specialize in treating trauma - domestic violence, rape, victims of crime, and other traumatic situations. I have been in practice for over 25 years and use primarily cognitive behavioral therapy approaches, although therapy is focused on the needs of the client. I also provide expert testimony in criminal and civil matters in the areas of Intimate Partner Violence, Rape Trauma, and PTSD. I have testified over 350 times and worked on over 1,200 forensic cases.

I have experience in many different therapy modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, psychodynamic therapy, interpersonal therapy, family therapy and couples therapy. My private practice is devoted to both long-term psychotherapy for individual's seeking insight and identity exploration and as well as more short-term, problem focused treatment, tailoring her treatments to the individual's goals and timeline. I specialize in services to adults, teens, and couples. Services: Couples Therapy Individual Therapy Yoga Therapy Conditions: Anxiety Disorders Depression/Mood Disorders Eating Disorders Life transitions (ex. divorce, grief) Work, relationship or life dissatisfaction

It can be very difficult to take steps towards positive change or to seek support when facing challenge in your life. Therefore, my primary goal when working with a new client is to create a comfortable environment. I strive to get to know you and to understand what you want from our work. I believe that each person's needs will be different, so I draw from a wide range of techniques to tailor therapy to your specific goals. These tools can help you reduce symptoms, understand patterns in your life, improve relationships and accomplish your personal or professional goals. I practice a variety of research supported therapies, often drawing from cognitive behavioral, interpersonal, and humanistic techniques. While I work with most client concerns, I received specialized training with young adult populations, multicultural issues and social anxiety or shyness. My research has focused on concerns of multiracial or multicultural people. I consider myself very lucky to be able to work with clients towards healing, change and growth. I strive to honor my client's concerns by providing a safe space where all aspects of life can be discussed. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Child and Parent Counseling I believe each family has its own strengths and assets that can be utilized to assist in healing and succeeding. My services are individually catered to each of my client's needs. Depending on the situation and age of the child, I offer individual therapy, dyadic therapy with parent and child, and family therapy. I also offer developmental assessment, referrals, parent support, and resources. Clinical Supervision I am registered with the Board of Behavioral Sciences to provide clinical supervision of intern hours for both MFTs and ASWs. Please contact me regarding more information on group and individual supervision.

Julie is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Healing Arts and Expressive Arts Therapist, Grief Loss Specialist, and Soul Collage® Facilitator who has served the Sacramento and surrounding areas for 20+ years. Currently offering Workshops, Classes, Consulting and Training in the areas of Creative and Healing Arts, Art Therapy, Expressive Arts, Soul Collage®, Grief and Loss

My goal in counseling is to provide a safe environment to discuss some of life's most painful issues without fear of judgment. I believe that the most important indicator of change is the counseling relationship. Because of this I strive to form a trusting relationship with every client, and view the counseling relationship as one of partners in the healing process. I also believe that our relationship with God is a critical aspect of how we define ourselves. I provide Christian Counseling for those interested. Because every situation is unique, I use various types of therapy to assist in process of healing and restoration.

As a Cognitive-behavioral therapist, my goal is to guide you on the path to self-discovery to help you and your family lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. Through the use of different therapy approaches and techniques, we will uncover long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you or your family back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. If you, or someone you love, are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Counseling services are available for men, women and couples who are seeking to create new meaning in their lives and relationships. Areas of specialization include: Resolving Crises: For those experiencing crisis, I provide a peaceful, compassionate environment in which individuals in crisis can find a calm center amidst the storm that surrounds them. I have worked with people troubled by depression, anxiety and unresolved trauma. Together, we'll explore the meanings behind the human tendency to hold onto things long past their usefulness, and construct a new way forward.   Midlife Transitions: Human beings are meant to grow, emotionally and spiritually, throughout their lives. As our souls call out for change, many of us drown out that call with distractions (such as overwork, affairs, alcohol overuse), ignoring or perhaps fearing the challenge to be who we were meant to be. Men’s Issues Although women are highly intuitive, insightful and compassionate, there are times when a man in transition might prefer to interact with a therapist who’s shared a similar journey. I'll provide a supportive setting in which men can safely connect to their feelings to learn and grow. Addictions: When life overwhelms, Addiction can seem like a best friend, soothing our fears with comforting numbness. Developing new coping skills takes time and fearless honesty. I have extensive training working with clients who have allowed Addiction to control their lives. My approach is nonjudgmental, encouraging and patient. I don’t believe in powerlessness. I believe we all have the strength to change. Marital and Couples Counseling: The key to effective long-term relationships isn’t having two people say, do and think the same way. Shared interests and values between partners are important, but the key to successful relationships is the extent to which each partner is allowed to grow emotionally and spiritually. Yet people don’t advance at the same rate. When couples find themselves drifting apart or on a collision course, it can be helpful to pause, assess and set the course for a new future. Fully realized individuals are capable of sharing power, tolerating differences, and nurturing growth without feeling threatened, suffocated or diminished.

As a practical, interactive, solution-focused therapist, my treatment approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns. With sensitivity and compassion, I help clients find solutions to a wide range of life challenges and psychological issues. I draw on a variety of styles and techniques, working with each client to help them build on their strengths to identify and achieve life goals. Depression, anxiety, alcohol and drug problems, trauma, PTSD and other painful issues are treatable problems and deserve a focused, personalized approach. Are you depressed or anxious? Are you unhappy with your marriage or relationship? Have you suffered a loss and you are grieving? Do you worry too much? Are you concerned about your alcohol or drug use? Is anger damaging your relationships or career? Do you lack the social or people skills you need? Do you suffer from unresolved trauma or abuse? I have the experience and training to help with these and other problems. As a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFC24453), a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, and a Nationally Certified Addiction Counselor, I bring more than 20 years of experience helping clients find new hope and workable solutions. Trained and certified in the Harville Hendrix methods of Imago Therapy, I am able to offer focused, positive technique to assist couples in achieving greater intimacy through open communication and increased empathy. Many couples report remarkable improvement when recurrent problems are brought into the open and addressed directly. You probably have questions you would like to discuss before deciding on therapy or a therapist.

I have a general adult out-patient practice. A good part of my practice is consulting for primary care physicians and other therapists about psychotropic medications and alternatives to medication if there is one. I see a lot of people with sleep problems, anxiety and Bi-Polar Disorder. I've also developed a specialty with young people who have failed to launch. These are often young men who are having a hard time finding their way in the world, are often living with their parents, can't keep jobs, not doing well in school, don't know what they want to do with their lives, or experience relationship failures. Often it is some small thing that has gotten off track that, once discovered, gets the person going again. That can be something like a small learning disability or minor ADHD, lack internal discipline, fears, discouragement, or lack of self-knowing.

If you are seeking support in addressing emotional or behavioral concerns for yourself or your child, I may be able to help. I offer individual and family therapy to the residents of Davis and the surrounding community. I specialize in working with with children, teens, and young adults. I offer individual, family, and group therapy depending on your goals and my assessment of what might be the most beneficial for you. In addition to therapy I also provide psychological testing. I am one of the few psychologists in Davis that offers this service, and I am the only psychologist here who administers SSI disability evaluations. Lastly, I am available for consultation and presentations. If you are looking for an expert in the mental health field to give a presentation or workshop for your event, please contact me! I enjoy educating the public and raising awareness about mental health.

Sometimes you discover that the path you find yourself on is not the same path you had set out on in the beginning. By participating in the psychotherapy process, you allow yourself to strengthen what is best in you, so that you may become more effective and satisfied in dealing with challenges you encounter in your life. I work with you to help you rediscover and nurture your innate strength and capabilities and to use your inner wisdom to guide your actions and sooth your emotions. Therapy can help you build on the capacities that you have already developed. It can also help you learn how to think about old problems in new ways and how to act differently when facing them. To the extent that it is necessary, therapy can allow you to take a broader look at what has gone wrong in your life and what improvements will be necessary for your circumstances or experiences to become more satisfying. Beyond looking at yourself clearly and mastering new skills, therapy will help you develop greater self-control and self-esteem. I offer counseling sessions for individuals, couples, and families.

The Anxiety Treatment Center, Inc. offers a variety of treatment options, depending on the particular needs of each individual including individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and an intensive outpatient treatment program. The Intensive Day Treatment Program is for individuals with moderate to severe levels of anxiety whose needs have not been effectively met through weekly individual or group therapy sessions. It is also for individuals whose symptoms significantly disrupt daily activities such as work, school, and relationships, which can result in isolation and depression. This program is offered Monday through Friday from 9am to 1pm, and length of stay is generally four to six weeks. Each client works individually with a therapist so that each person's unique needs are addressed. An additional benefit to participation in The Intensive Treatment Program is that patients can see that they are not alone, and interact with others who are experiencing similar symptoms and concerns. This is extremely rewarding for the individual as often times we hear “I felt like I was the only one who was going through this.” Our program is limited to six participants to provide a safe, comfortable, and supportive setting. Over the course of treatment, individuals will receive the following: •Comprehensive evaluation and assessment •Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) •Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP) •Education surrounding causes of anxiety disorders •Social skills and assertiveness training •Relaxation training, and stress management •Family therapy and consultation •Psychopharmacological consultation as needed •Psychological testing as needed •Collaboration with community mental health professionals •Relapse Prevention •Follow-up outpatient treatment •Aftercare groups

As an experienced licensed therapist, I can work with you to identify the problem areas in your life. Together, we can create a plan for change, develop new skills for stronger connections, and create healthier interactions in your daily living. Yes, I know counseling can be costly. However, therapy is an investment. The investment is in improving your emotional well-being. In an attempt to ease the stress of the expense, I offer sliding scale fees depending on one’s ability to pay. Now that you are here, you have taken the first step in building healthier more satisfying life. If you would like to get a better sense of who I am and how I can help you, I offer A Free ½ Hour Initial Phone Consultation.

I provide direct services, education, and training to adolescents and their families with special sensitivity to multicultural populations. My treatment specialties include working with children and adolescents along with their families struggling with addictions, eating disorders, sexual abuse victimization, trauma, and PTSD. Additional areas of special training include depression/anxiety, bereavement issues along with other areas of interpersonal challenges and struggles.

Clinical hypnotherapy is the blending of traditional talk therapy and hypnosis, which allows the client to access the deep “stories” of their subconscious mind and to make changes to that internal “programming” in record time. American Health Magazine reported the following statistics: • Psychoanalysis: 38% recovery after 600 sessions • Behavior Therapy: 72% recovery after 22 sessions • Hypnotherapy: 93% recovery after 6 sessions Many people believe that hypnosis should only be used as a last resort for smoking cessation, weight loss or changing habits. Few people know that hypnotherapy is a dynamic and vital healing process which embraces all aspects of mental health care. Client-centered hypnotherapy is a partnership between the client and the therapist. Through the process of hypnosis and/or regression, the subconscious mind can go directly to the original cause of the trauma or habit. These feelings can be healed and released, thus empowering the clients to let go of old beliefs about themselves and others. Ultimately, this therapy allows clients to live the life they want to live by giving them the power of choice. Transpersonal hypnotherapy is an orientation toward clinical hypnotherapy that addresses the relationship between the mind, body and spirit. It emphasizes the innate spiritual resources within each individual, connecting the client with the guidance of a Higher Power to bring insights and experiences that lead to the client's highest good. This is not connected to any specific religious orientation, but rather to an inner “knowing” that makes it possible for clients to explore their relationship to a Universal Creator and their own unique spiritual walk through life. I am a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and a Professional Member of the Association for Transpersonal Psychology and Hypnotherapy. By blending ancient shamanic tools for self-transformation with modern understanding of the human mind, I help you to reintegrate the “missing pieces” of yourself so that you can resolve unwanted patterns of behavior, find peace and inner harmony, and feel whole and alive again. By erasing the traumas of past abuse, abandonment, and accidents/injuries (including PTSD), you can come back to the experience of thriving, not just surviving, and of reconnection to your higher Wisdom and soul’s purpose for your life.

Searching for the right therapist is challenging, and I offer this information to give you a sense of what it would be like to work together. Feel free to call or email if you have any questions. I offer a free telephone consultation, and offer excellent referrals if I am not the right fit for your particular circumstance. I work with individuals and children on a wide range of issues including anxiety, perfectionism, depression. With couples-counseling, support through life-transistions or re-connecting/ rekindling loving feelings.

Another specialty is in unique emotional needs of 'gifted' children and families. I believe that the process of therapy is unique to every person. I draw from a variety of sources to meet your individual personality, interests, and goals. I often use strengths-based and solution-focused therapy. Our sessions will be engaging and supportive. I look forward to working with you!

I believe that a strong therapeutic alliance is a key component of effective and successful outcomes--I highly prioritize your need and right to feel safe, validated, supported, and heard without judgment as we collaboratively work toward your goals. I utilize evidence-based approaches and encourage your active engagement in therapy--it's not about me telling you what you should do, it's about me helping you discover and enhance the innate potential we all possess. I consider it a gift to be part of your journey toward self-empowerment, peace, and satisfaction in your personal and professional life. My clients appreciate me for being warm, safe, and non-judgmental. With couples and families, I respect multiple perspectives, foster trust with each participating member, and maintain a neutral, unbiased position. I am skilled at treating addiction issues and clients who are very doubtful about benefiting from counseling. I also am very experienced with treating depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. I have strong appreciation for ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic factors that influence personal identity, experiences, and values. If you are struggling with feeling hopeless and alone, please know that you deserve to feel hopeful, happy, and empowered. It is my privilege to support you.

He will not only offer you solutions that have worked for other people, but will collaborate with you to create new possibilities that are specific to your unique relationships, family, and life situation.

As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I specialize in the treatment of TEENS AND THEIR FAMILIES. I also greatly enjoy working with COUPLES, INDIVIDUALS and CHILDREN of all ages. If you are thinking about embarking on the journey of therapy then you have come to the right place! But before you continue, let me start you out with a few thoughts to ponder: First, don’t give up! I know the decision to start therapy is not easy. And for so many, the steps toward actually feeling relief from symptoms may seem insurmountable. It often involves call after call researching and choosing a therapist, sorting through scheduling and finances, and perhaps begging loved ones to participate with you -- it can take a lot of energy! Energy that you may not think you have. But what is the alternative? To let the problem you’re faced with continue to build and build? You will probably reach a point of frustration again and be right back where you started -- searching for a therapist! Don’t give up -- you’re closer than you think. I am passionate about assisting my clients in reaching their goals. I believe in identifying clear goals, formulating a strategy, implementing proven methods, and seeking results. There are no guarantees for specific outcomes in therapy, but I can assure you that I will be working hard alongside you. Taking your burdens to a safe, confidential, empathetic place to unload and find the right tools for change can make all the difference. I am humbled by the opportunity to participate in the important work of fostering fulfilling relationships, promoting healing, and always encouraging growth.

Investing in counseling means that you are investing in your most important assets-your emotional and physical well being and the wellness of your family and personal relationships. Having a trained professional support you in changing negative patterns and healing old wounds can often give you positive results. I try and work as hard as my clients do, because I understand the importance of the trust they place in me and the seriousness of the issues they bring into my office. I work well with people who are facing these issues: - Moving past and healing difficult events and patterns such as abuse, family dysfunction, trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD and divorce. - Enhance communication and improve your relationships with spouse, family, partner, co-workers and friends. - Cope with chronic pain or illness. - Address issues around infertility, pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum issues and childbirth traumas. - Work with adult abuse survivors who want to reduce anxiety and trauma symptoms and work on having healthy relationships. - Process issues of grief and loss. - Deal with life challenges and adjustments. - Heal attachment disruptions. - Prepare for a happy marriage with premarital counseling. I work with adults, couples (married, unmarried, and LGBT) and teens. My clients tell me that they enjoy having feedback from a professional, neutral third party to help them sort out life’s challenges. My style is warm, approachable and down-to-earth. I take the time to find out about your specific situation and what has and has not worked for you as a part of tailoring my feedback to be the most helpful for you rather than protocols that may not be helpful in your life. I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation so you can have your questions answered without having to commit to an appointment and so you can feel confident as you move forward that this will be a good fit for you. Find out more about my clinical interests on my Specialties page. Even if your specific issue is not listed I invite you to contact me via email or phone to find out if I can help you.

I have been in private practice since 2002 working with individuals, couples, and families. In particular, I work with people struggling with relational, emotional, and physical health issues that make it difficult for them to succeed in dealing with eating disorders, addictions, and in relationships. I believe in each person's ability to make changes that can significantly improve their life and relationships with others. My clients pick up on this belief and make changes they were never able to do so in the past. I want to help you find hope and experience new levels of health in your relationship with your self and with others.

Looking for therapy that's caring, practical, effective, and goal-oriented? I have 25 years experience in counseling adults, teens, and children. And, if you wish, we can also integrate neurofeedback training into our work together. Neurofeedback uses the EEG (which neurologists also use) to teach you to change problematic brainwave patterns. I've written three books, including a new one on enhancing brain function, and taught biofeedback at San Francisco State University. Specialties include: anxiety, depression, ADD, addictions, PTSD/trauma, OCD, couples and family issues,concussion and brain injury, stroke, memory/cognitive issues, and sleep problems. I love my work and genuinely respect my clients. I've also consulted for over 120 organizations throughout the U.S. My book, Mastering the Winds of Change, was published by HarperCollins. My children's book, The Little Sailboat and the Big Storm, was published by Coming of Age Press. What is different about what we do? Many therapists use the "uh huh, go on" approach. I'm a good listener, but I also help you to set goals and achieve them. How? Through using proven, effective tools for change that you can learn.

I have been in private practice since 2002 working with individuals, couples, and families. In particular, I work with people struggling with relational, emotional, and physical health issues that make it difficult for them to succeed in dealing with eating disorders, addictions, and in relationships. I believe in each person's ability to make changes that can significantly improve their life and relationships with others. My clients pick up on this belief and make changes they were never able to do so in the past. I want to help you find hope and experience new levels of health in your relationship with your self and with others.

Is your life stuck, at a standstill, feeling blocked? Are you finding it difficult to resolve or move forward in important areas of your living? Do you often try to make changes, yet end up feeling discouraged, frustrated, resigned? Perhaps you wish to alter certain habits or develop new ways, but something seems to stop you from accomplishing or maintaining the changes. At this point of impasse, we can feel most disheartened. Although it may feel like the end, it is actually an opportunity for a new beginning. There is a source within all of us that can guide us forward- our body intelligence is the vehicle for growth and healing. I specialize in helping people who are experiencing life-impasses, a dispirited condition in which life-energy stagnates and our desires for change feel blocked. At this edge, we often feel confused, despairing, at a loss about what to do or how to proceed. I discovered that at the point of "not-knowing," there is something in us that does know. The method I call Body Awareness Therapy (BAT) is a simple, powerful process of accessing and unfolding Body Wisdom. BAT awakens life-energy, restores spirit, and shows the right direction/ next steps. Sitting and talking, while helpful, cannot themselves transform deeply ingrained patterns. Thus, I offer various possibilities for processing stuck places and resolving impasses- inner body awareness; outer expressiveness/movement; playing out embodied patterns, etc. These provide opportunities for developing "know how," learning new skills, developing capacities and healing core wounds. This method is based on the truth that our body contains a kind of knowledge, information and energy capable of healing core wounds and carrying forward our living where it has become stuck. It is effortless, in that we allow the body energy and inner spirit to guide us to the right steps and needed interactions. BAT will enable you to: .1 deepen awareness of bodily feelings; .2 release long-held tensions, stress- freeing life-energy; .3 restore the body's spirit; .4 follow bodily messages/leads; .5 identify and transform bodily patterns/ heal psychic wounds, .6 develop new capacities- taking stands, initiating action, expressing oneself. Our body is always moving toward where it is wounded or blocked, as well as to where there is new life, fresh air and greater vitality. Symptoms develop when the body's living energy and spirit have been broken or blocked from actualizing and expanding itself. When our awareness reconnects with the body, it reawakens this life-force, beginning a journey of recovering lost parts of ourselves and restoring our innate inner spirit. BAT can help release blocked energy, heal broken spirit and rejuvenate our bodily living.

You may have found this listing in a focused search for a healing solution for your traumatized, attachment challenged child or RAD diagnosed child within your family. You came to the right spot. I work with individuals, couples, and families utilizing attachment therapies designed to address underlying emotional difficulties associate with parent/child challenges in the first few years of life. I am experienced in couples attachment therapy and emotionally focused therapy approaches that are proven effective with adults. Also, I specifically specialize in treating children and adolescents who may have experienced trauma due to childhood abuse, neglect, abandonment, multiple foster family placements, and/or adoption. These children have already experienced harm and I take great care not to cause them to be re-traumatized by the clinical interventions that are designed to help them heal and grow into healthy individuals. My therapeutic approach is proven effective in reducing the behavioral symptoms that are often associated with a variety of disorders, including Complex Developmental Trauma, Reactive Attachment Disorder, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder, and others. Additionally, my treatment approach addresses the underlying fears, misperceptions, and distress from which this population of children may suffer, and which contribute to their disturbing behavior and lack of healthy attachment relationships. Our latest therapeutic addition to our services is neurofeedback. Finally, a way to retrain the brain for a better life. Additionally, I use individual Emotionally Focused Family Therapy and Trauma Focused Cognitive Therapy with the child when trauma is interfering with the ability to think clearly, make decisions from a solid base, and cope emotionally to family interactions, life experiences, and challenges. You do not have to figure this out alone. There is hope. Your child can grow to express love more freely, and your family can live peacefully together.
