Challenging life transitions can often bring up anxiety and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can help. CBT is an evidence-based form of therapy that focuses on changing patterns of thinking (cognitions) and behaviors associated with stress and anxiety. CBT is supported by research and considered to be the “gold standard” treatment for anxiety disorders. Research indicates that over 60% of those who undergo CBT experience a significant improvement in anxiety symptoms in 12 - 20 sessions. The tools and skills learned during CBT last a lifetime.
I commonly teach CBT strategies such as relaxation skills, problem solving, assertiveness skills and cognitive restructuring, which means reframing unhelpful thoughts. If you feel that stress and anxiety are negatively impacting your life then you are worthy of help and I would be honored to be your guide towards greater freedom and ease.

S. Abigail McCarrel : Welcome Home Family Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, DCSW
Stress is pretty much the hottest buzz word in mental health these days and that is for a good reason. Never have families and children been under more stress in their lives than right now. As a result, families are falling apart. Technology and screen time has filled the gap, which only contributes to an increased stress response in the brain. To help families manage this stress, we look closely at screen time in the family and gently bring in limits that make sense for the child's development. We carve out time for parents and children to play together to increase trust and connection. We also learn to practice self-compassion, which helps to build everyone’s window of tolerance. Most importantly, however, we go back and integrate primitive reflexes that are getting in the way of handling stress in a more consistent, regulated way. My primitive reflex integration work is a brain balance program that grows connections in the lower parts of the brain. This helps to create a foundation for a more resilient mind. So, together, we will get moving, have fun and grow some new connections.
