Welcome, my name is Anna Garrison. Thinking about starting therapy? There are many benefits, and you've already taken the first step! Research shows that therapy can help in many ways such as improving self-esteem, building communication and interpersonal skills, changing self-defeating habits, and learning skills to better manage our emotions. All of this to say, therapy can help you have a happier life experience. I am here to support you in your journey of reaching your goals, identifying barriers, brainstorming solutions, building resilience, and implementing positive changes in your life!
I utilize different techniques in therapy based on your specific needs. Some of these modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), mindfulness, solution-focused, and strengths based approaches. Whatever may be challenging you at this time, we will collaboratively develop and implement a treatment plan.
Give yourself some credit for even considering starting therapy. It can be scary to find or ask for help when we are struggling. If you are being challenged by life's stressors, internal judgement, external pressures, or just need a supportive and safe space to process your feelings, I invite you to schedule an appointment today.
