Anxiety disorders (generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder/agoraphobia, social anxiety disorder, and others) are the most prevalent psychiatric disorders, and are associated with a high burden of illness. Anxiety disorders are often underrecognized and undertreated in primary care. Treatment is indicated when a patient shows marked distress or suffers from complications resulting from the disorder.
As you look for a child psychologist, therapist or counselor, you will find you have come to the right place! Having a background in working with children and teenagers, our child counselor has a unique ability to relate to kids and to help guide them through their deepest struggles. Using a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focus, we work to alleviate the painful impact of trauma, depression and anxiety in kids as we partner alongside of the parent.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps improve a child, adolescent or teenager’s mood by examining and challenging his or her confused or distorted patterns of thinking. A Cognitive Behavior Therapy counselor will teach a child and the child’s family that thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all connected in some way. The way we think causes us to feel certain emotions which then causes us to act in certain ways.

Family Therapy is a form of psychotherapy that addresses the behaviors of all family members and the way these behaviors affect not only individual family members, but also relationships between family members and the family unit as a whole. As such, treatment is usually divided between time spent on individual therapy and time spent on couple therapy, family therapy, or both, if necessary. MFT may also be referred to as couple and family therapy, couple counseling, marriage counseling, or family counseling.
Couples therapy can be a powerful tool, whether you’re looking to increase intimacy, improve communication, build trust after a betrayal, or learn to navigate your differences as individuals.
Couples therapy has been around since the 1930s, but it didn’t gain popularity until the 1980s when different approaches described below came to life.
There are a wide variety of approaches to couples counseling, and experts say choosing the right one for you will ultimately depend on your goals for the relationship.
Individual counseling is a personal opportunity to receive support and experience growth during challenging times in life. Individual counseling can help one deal with many personal topics in life such as anger, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, marriage and relationship challenges, parenting problems, school difficulties, career changes, etc.
At Be Your Best Self & Thrive, we believe in a mind-body-spirit approach to therapy. We see people from the perspective of an integrated whole, which we also call holistic therapy. This is in contrast to a more traditional psychotherapy model, which focuses primarily on life history and tends to view mind, body and spirit as separate and compartmentalized entities. Our goal is to help you build a healthy alliance between your mind, body and spirit that works together for your benefit.
