Family Therapy in Alaska

I am a licensed professional counselor who strives to incorporate balance into my practice and daily life. Balance is sought by each individual and entails a holistic process regardless of age. I am intrigued by behaviors that involve self-sabotage and learned helplessness in addition to exploring the power of thoughts and their effect on human behavior and feelings. My natural curiosity of how others think, behave and respond to external stimuli was reinforced when I lived in Japan for nearly 2 years.

I believe in the power of connection and relationships. Many times in our lives, we come into places where we get stuck, feel disconnected, and wonder about our place in this life. This can look like depression, anxiety, disconnection, broken relationships, or more. My aim is to help you feel more settled within yourself, to develop more fulfilling and satisfying relationships, and to create purpose and meaning in your life. Through our time together, it's my sincere hope you will begin to experience the happiness and satisfaction that you are searching for in your life

The world grows more complex every day, changing how we live our lives, and it's bringing up a lot of stress and anxiety. We get it. The Wisdom Team provides highly respectful, confidential and individualized treatment choices for you or your family member. We also have counselors specifically dedicated for marriage and family issues. Our Addiction Recovery program is nationally accredited, and provides a warm, informal and rewarding experience for personal growth. We are in this together. Our vision is to positively impact our community; one person...one family at a time.

I am dedicated to helping people overcome personal challenges, establish healthy balance and achieve lasting change through mindfulness-based approaches. These practices are very helpful for clients faced with issues such as anxiety, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress symptoms, depression, relationship/family issues, stress-related physical problems and life transitions. I have provided counseling services for over 35 years to children, teens, and adults and customize therapy to meet your specific needs and goals. To that end I have trained in a variety of therapeutic techniques, in the belief that no one size fits all.

As a Licensed Marital and Family Therapist I work with individuals, couples, and families on a wide variety issues related to mental health and relationship concerns. I believe every person has the skills and tools to achieve a healthy and fulfilling life. However accessing these tools and applying them one's life can be a challenging process which can create dissatisfaction in life and relationships. As a therapist, I see my role as that of guiding people through the journey of identifying and harnessing the power of their unique strengths so that they may achieve satisfaction and fulfillment from life.

The secret suffering we all experience is rarely laid bare for one another, yet we know it's shared. Feedback that I have received is that I am "blunt, but with a heart." I respectfully and directly refer to and discuss the suffering and its sources. I have extensive experience working with youth and their families, include in my field of interest improving communication within couples, coping skills for individuals struggling with a variety of mental health and interpersonal issues, teach and facilitate effective communication through a Circle model, and focus always on a client's relationship with the self.

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. We treat various types of symptoms and struggles such as: job stress, life changes, family support, anxiety, depression, and traumatic life experiences; to name a few.

Life happens; the effects of loss vary; and the impacts of stress/trauma are more ‘normal’ than most people realize. You are not alone; your struggles are real; and your mental wellness is and should be treated with as much vigor as your need for food and shelter. It is natural for our bodies to want to heal themselves; and our human strength and natural behavior is to adapt and evolve. We develop negative coping skills as we adapt to stress/trauma, grief/loss, major life changes/transitions, chronic illness/pain, identity struggles, and relationship conflicts.

Many people I meet with began therapy because life became overwhelming. People pleasing, perfectionism, and “holding it together” for everyone else left them at a loss. Hiding their imperfections and needs did not lead to better relationships, it actually led to more stress, worry, and feeling alone. I’ve sat with people who have difficulty knowing even the seemingly simplest things about themselves, like where they’d like to go to dinner, or what color looks good on them. All of this reflecting a deeper problem.

Psychodynamic therapy emphasizes the relationship between the therapist and client as the core of the healing process.
