Group Therapy

Groups are a great way to reduce feelings of isolation that often accompany issues such as depression and anxiety. Participating in a small therapeutic group (5-7 members) can provide tremendous support, perspective, and relief during life's struggles or transitions.

Current groups:

• Girls Anxiety Group, Fridays at 4pm, ages 9-11: Topics include separation anxiety, stress and worry, coping/relaxation techniques, and growing up confident.

for families

When home life becomes a source of stress instead of a source of love and satisfaction, families may benefit from participating in the counseling process together. Brief family therapy can help you gain insight, tools, and unity.

Services offered:

• Family Therapy (divorce, family conflict, trauma/loss)

• Strategic parent coaching

• Holistic behavior modification

• Coordination of services with school professionals

biofeedback

Biofeedback sounds high-tech (and it kindof is!) but with Katie, it becomes a unique and fun way to train your mind and body to relax at will. Simply put, Biofeedback means using electronic equipment to receive real-time information about the processes going on in your body, allowing you to actually see the way that your body responds to stress. 

Biofeedback is useful with clients of all ages who suffer from ADHD, anxiety, depression, sleep issues, stress, and more. And the best part is, it's fun! Just clip a small sensor onto your finger tip and allow Katie to teach you how to control specially designed Biofeedback computer games with your mind! The way to progress through the game is to relax, and the result is powerful insight about your ability to control your energy level, calm your emotional state, and reduce your feelings of stress. 

video self-modeling

Video Self-Modeling (VSM) is an innovative, scientific research-based intervention that utilizes technology to help clients visualize success — literally! VSM is useful in addressing a wide range of emotional and behavioral difficulties including disruptive school behaviors, phobias, restrictive eating, selective mutism, stuttering, anxiety, and many more. Katie works with clients to film a short video, which she then creatively edits to produce a customized mini-movie depicting the client performing the desired behavior with fluidity and mastery. After a prescribed number of viewings, clients significantly improve their real-life ability. Research has shown that results are immediate, dramatic, and lasting.
