I use two techniques,
Emotionally Focused
Therapy for Couples and ImagoRelationships Therapy.
Therapy is a way to create a more enjoyable and manageable life. As you explore your thoughts with a trained listener you learn about yourself and have the space to sort out life's complications, creating new understanding. This exploration often leads to less anxiety, depression, better relationships, and a clearer path forward. I have extensive training in psycho-dynamic approaches for individual therapy. I also specialize in couple relationship therapy.

Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP

**Not currently accepting new patients** Seeking therapy can be a difficult decision to make; this choice can be further compounded when life doesn’t seem to be going your way in the first place. Exploring and researching options for psychotherapy is an important step in initiating meaningful change into your life, so be encouraged that you have already begun the process. As a psychologist, my first goal is always to create an alliance of trust, comfort, and collaboration. A sense of safety fosters emotional expression that leads to the creation of achievable treatment goals and ultimately therapeutic success.

I have always had a passion and a deep respect for humanity, for learning about others, for appreciating the differences and personal histories, and for discovering how individuals' values drive their own power to heal themselves. As a therapist, it is my privilege to be a mere facilitator of the discovery process. I look forward to aiding the change process in its many forms and in the time frame that you--the individual—desires and determines. With 15 years of experience in the field, I feel that I bring experience but also a fresh perspective of how to help.
Alexa Griffith
Counselor, LMHC, NCC, RPT, LCAC

I believe that within every child, adult, and family is the natural capacity to heal. Healing your family takes effort. No one said this would be easy! Marriage takes work, and so does raising children. The good news is you do not have to do it alone. I will walk with you as your guide as you begin to heal yourself, your child, your relationship, and your family. It is my philosophy that no one in a family is isolated. Difficulties with one family member almost certainly affects the rest of the family

Emotionally Focused Therapists
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an approach to therapy that helps clients identify their emotions, learn to explore and experience them, to understand them and then to manage them. Carmel Emotionally Focused Therapy embraces the idea that emotions can be changed, first by arriving at or 'living' the maladaptive emotion (e.g. loss, fear or shame) in session, and then learning to transform it. Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples seeks to break the negative emotion cycles within relationships, emphasizing the importance of the attachment bond between couples, and how nurturing of the attachment bonds and an empathetic understanding of each others emotions can break the cycles.
