Therapists in Fairbanks North Star County, AK

I strive to provide a safe, compassionate space where you are able to share what you're experiencing and be heard. Working together we will explore and identify ways in which you will be able to navigate what you are experiencing in a way that is most helpful for you.

In my psychotherapy practice with adolescents, men, women and families the focus is typically on issues such as behavioral concerns, depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, ADHD and anger. I believe that everyone is entitled to be treated with respect and honesty and that therapy should start where the client is at. Additionally, each client has their own ways of gaining insight and implementing new patterns into their lives and will have their own pace at which they discover the strengths within themselves. I like to work with the client to discover what is most effective for them and go from there.

Email or call for questions about availability. Messages are checked Monday through Thursday. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I take a strengths-based approach in helping clients reach personal goals for well-being. Self-care, coping skills, positive communication, social supports, and a belief in the dignity and worth of each person are central to my work.

I am a psychotherapist currently in private practice and have lived and worked in Fairbanks since 1999. I earned my MSW in 1982 and have worked in variety of residential and outpatient settings. I bring more than 30 years of clinical experience working with children, teens, adults, couples and families presenting with a wide range of concerns.

Hello, I'm Laurey Gronemeier, and I provide online counseling across Alaska. Isn't it time you felt better? More empowered to become what you hope to be? How many times have you tried? You go into the woods to clear your mind, you confide in your friends, time after time, yet nothing seems to last. One day you're adrift, and the next you're high-centered, with no lasting improvement in sight. At times like these, it can be worthwhile to seek professional help. No judgment or pressure. Just respectful, specialized support from an Alaskan who gets it. Teletherapy is an art that takes expertise to do well. Reach out today.

Life can be challenging and painful. Medication and antibiotics may be needed to address significant infected physical wounds. The same process is needed to address infections of the Heart. Medication takes time to work. The healing process takes effort. It doesn’t come easy. There are no quick fixes. The right medications attack the root, which in turn, fixes the symptoms. What are some HEART medications needed to address psychological/emotional infections? Self-awareness, forgiveness, understanding/acceptance, renewal of the mind, purpose, connection and belonging! Find freedom TODAY!

SokyaHealth is proud to offer Fairbanks, AK a full circle of mental health care services, including therapy, coaching, support groups, medication management, and an online library of self-care resources. We make world-class mental health care accessible for everyone!

I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with intense emotions and/or behaviors that feel out of control. My approach is flexible and collaborative, working with the person or persons to tailor treatment to help them reach their desired therapy goals.

It is a privilege to work with individuals in my home-state of Alaska. Folks that find their way to me are often looking for ways to address past trauma, improve quality of relationships, prevent relapse and/or address substance use, explore and change patterns of codependency in relationships, express and advocate new boundaries, process grief and loss, and discover options for improved overall quality of life. I coordinate care with other providers when necessary to offer a holistic approach to the whole person, with support for as many facets of your life as possible.

If you are looking for a change in your life - this is it. We all have seasons in our life where it is hard to manage, hard to deal with, and hard to figure out on our own. Sometimes we just can't cope with all the challenges of daily life and need someone to help navigate and offer a fresh new look. Doesn't matter what you are looking for, we can problem-solve it together and get you feeling better soon!

There is no ‘perfect person’ for therapy. Anyone dealing with any type of behavioral or emotional issues, from depression to couple’s counseling, and everything in between, is welcome. Here, you will find a comfortable, supportive, and encouraging environment, where the focus will be on you alone – your individual needs to achieve growth are the top priority. My goal as a therapist is to find solutions that work for you on an individual basis, helping you to discover the true potential of your life.

As an adult survivor of child abuse who overcame a hard childhood to create success, you are good at problem solving and powering through, but you experience a disconnection from your feelings, your body, and your relationships. You are good at pulling it together, putting your feelings aside and focusing to get things done. When you aren’t numb inside, you feel anxious until you find a way to numb out again. Sometimes the things you do to numb out: over-drinking, overeating, overworking, make you feel worse. You love your partner, but you often feel far away from them emotionally. It’s hard to receive touch from someone you love.

I am a child and family therapist. I work with school age children & junior youth and their parents. I also work with young adults. Common concerns are self regulating emotions, communicating effectively, and relationship repair. Adults progress well using multiple approaches, mindfulness stress reduction, thought restructuring & trauma release. Children progress through self expression in play and art, activities of emotion containment and release. The parent/child relationship has the most powerful influence on a child's well being. Filial Therapy helps repair disrupted attachment. I love my job!

I enjoy working with both adults and adolescents in a way that assists them in gaining greater self-understanding and compassion. Ultimately, I hope to help each client find a path to a more genuine and integrated way of being with others. I bring curiosity and a fresh look to each client, addressing them where they are in the moment. I see psychotherapy as a collaborative effort between therapist and client, and encourage feedback about our direction and progress.

We are here for those new to counseling and those who have been before. We have two therapists on staff: Virginia "Ginny" Redmond (LCSW) and Vanessa Shannon (LCSW). We provide services for youth ages 12 and up, adults and families across Alaska via telehealth, and in person at our Fairbanks office.

I have 46 years experience and have worked with children, teens, adults and families in mental health and substance abuse outpatient, intensive outpatient, day hospital, residential and inpatient settings, in urban and rural and areas including native villages. I have extensive trauma treatment experience including VA/DoD with combat veterans. I'd like to help you clear away the wreckage of the past and step forward as your authentic self.

For over 30 years I have worked with a variety of patients and client groups, including: the military, the school district, hospitals, dialysis, hospice and cancer navigation. It has been a tremendous joy to see the growth in services and the focus on continuity of care - a true vision of mine. I believe we can best care for our patients and clients by empowering them to care for themselves.

I enjoy working with teens, adults, and Elders in individual, family, and relationship-based therapies. I have a passion for working with those effected by trauma, those with challenges related to rural and Alaska-living, and those experiencing chronic health and mental health concerns.

You deserve a life unhindered from the memories of your past, relieved of depression and grief, safe from intrusive anxiety or panic. One of the best avenues to healing is to begin to unravel and understand your own story. Therapy is dedicated time that you carve out for yourself to heal from emotional and psychological wounds, past or present. I can help and support you in a safe and judgment-free environment, and my approach is to let you help set the pace and provide feedback every step of the way. Life is short; every moment spent suffering is too long because it robs you of the joy and fulfillment in your present and future.
