Welcome! Finding a therapist is a very personal process and an important step in achieving optimal well-being. I truly enjoy working with clients interested in gaining personal perspective and making positive change working from a strengths based perspective focusing on resiliency & personal growth. I work well with HSP's (Highly Sensitive People), individuals wanting to recover from emotional burn-out and those that are looking for an integrative approach to emotional healing. Mindful Matters offers individual adult (18+) counseling sessions in addition to Acudetox (Ear Acupuncture) & Neuroptimal Neurofeedback.

At Jana Briggs Counseling & Associates, we work with children, individuals, couples & families who are experiencing difficulty resolving problems, making decisions when conflicting objectives are issues, & seeking ways to reduce the stresses encountered in daily life. Our group views the counseling relationship as a partnership, & we see our roles as: assisting people in understanding their life-patterns; helping them recognize & use their strengths; encouraging them to take responsibility for their feelings, thoughts, & behaviors; and guiding them in making & implementing sensible decisions about their situations.

My clients are loving and compassionate people which is why they often say yes when they mean no. They have been shown through childhood experiences or romantic relationships that others wants and needs are more important than their own. They put on a brave face but are terrified that the world will see through this smile. Beneath this smile is a core belief that there is something fundamentally flawed about them. Their inner voice says, “you are unlovable." Paradoxically, what my clients crave the most is also what they are the most terrified of: connection, acceptance, and love. LGBTQIA ally

I am dedicated to helping both adults and children to reach their best adaptive functioning when facing issues of emotional distress. I assist my clients in gaining an understanding of one's underlying conflicts through cognitive and psychoanalytical therapy. Promoting healthier personal relationships, increased self esteem, and better coping skills for my clients is my goal.

It is my passion to partner with people as they share their story. My hope is to offer compassionate and perceptive support to my clients. Seeking support takes courage and having support through challenges or traumatic experiences provides perspective, encouragement and hope that can have a remarkable impact on how you overcome those experiences. Life is a journey and it is my goal to equip and inspire with an infusion of hope to heal the pain and wounds of life.

After working with children and families for 15 years in foster care and adoption settings, I developed a passion for empowering people who have experienced trauma, grief and loss, and who struggle with relationship issues. Life always presents challenges and the ability to move through those challenges with a strong sense of self is important. I work closely with clients to develop a strong therapeutic relationship, which engenders an environment of safety and promotes healing. I am an EMDR Certified Clinician which integrates attachment theory, CBT and emotion regulation. I also use child-centered play therapy with children.

Look at Cinderella: Pretty girl. Sweet. Married Prince Charming seems like ages ago. If you ask her today, the glitz has worn off and life around the castle looks pretty much like it does at your house: fights about stupid things, lousy communication, sleeping on the sofa. I helped them find their glass slipper. I'll help you find yours, too. That's Cinderella, but who are you? You're intelligent and motivated. No drug or alcohol problems. No domestic violence.

Connecting with clients on a deep level is absolutely vital as a therapist. I take pride in getting to know YOU personally, and tend to take more of a coaching role throughout therapy. Our sessions together are all about your journey, no issue is too big or small. My specialty and first therapeutic love is working with couples. I believe that all couples have the ability to get back to the honeymoon phase--and stay there. I also LOVE working with couples in the pre-marital/pre-engagement phase. I consider it an honor to give engaged couples a safe place to work through the kinks before embarking on their great journey together!

It’s another day and you’re disappointed the sun even came up…overwhelmed is the best word to describe you. Sadness waves through you. Sleep is elusive or sometimes you sleep too much. Worry engulfs you. You know exercise is supposed to help. But you don’t have an ounce of energy. The self-criticism that floats through your head can feel like it’s drowning you. You feel helpless and drained. No one knows you’re feeling this way. Part of you thinks that you should be able to pull yourself up by the bootstraps. But you just can’t. And you’ve tried so many different times. Everything you’ve tried has failed. Now what?

Making the decision to seek therapy takes guts! The courageous decision to take this step is one you will not regret. Together, we will find applicable solutions that will revolutionize your thinking and your life. Often, we don't need huge sweeping changes in our lives but rather a tweak in perspectives and thinking patterns. Small changes net big results. That first step is often the hardest part and you have already done that, so great job! Try a session. See what you think. If we are not a fit, that is okay. Either way, I hope you feel great about your decision to talk to someone. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Life is not about waiting out the storm, it's about learning to dance in the rain. I look forward to working with you, David Durtschi LPC, MA, NCC
