Making that first phone call or walking into the office for the first time can be scary so I make sure that people feel comfortable and that we have a good relationship .
I love working with kids and seeing how play transforms lives! I am a clinical social worker and a registered play therapist (RPT). I have worked with kids with a variety of concerns including behaviors, trauma, and regulation. I'm very playful in my approach, using a lot of sensory tools and activities specific to each child. I am client-centered, strengths based, trauma-informed and use an eclectic approach.

When asking for help you deserve to be treated non-judgmentally. I use my experience, knowledge & compassion to help patients find a better way to live with a wide range of difficulties (e.g., anxiety, anger, chronic illness, relationship issues). I strive to help each individual learn how to cope more effectively with life's problems by guiding adjustment of behaviors, beliefs & helping patients learn tools that work more effectively in managing how we relate to our own thoughts, emotions, & feelings. Who do you want to be in control of your life, you or your feelings & worries? Live consciously & consistently with your values.

The Coronavirus has drastically disrupted all of our lives. Teletherapy is the method I am now using to stay connected to current and new patients. Depression, anxiety, anger, and behavior problems can happen to anyone, especially during this time of social distancing, uncertainty, and fear. Emotional support and understanding can reduce stress and guide you to new sense of normal. Healthcare workers, essential workers, parents, individuals, couples , and children can get guidance and treatment now.

I believe that everyone possesses the capacity for growth and positive change. The therapeutic relationship is a sacred space in which to support clients in a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative environment so that they can develop insight and evolve. I believe this is accomplished through identifying triggers and stuck points, exploring strengths, developing healthy coping skills, and processing stressful and traumatic life events.

Hello! Thank you for visiting my page and taking that first step. A little about me: I am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Writing Exposure Therapy (WET), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for individuals, and have utilized Solution-Focused Brief Therapy for couples . If you prefer a Biblical approach, I am comfortable with Christian counseling as well. Finally, if you have experienced a trauma that you need help in healing, yet do not wish to talk about it in deep detail, ART and WET can be utilized to minimize the re-telling of your painful history. Whatever it is that brought you here, I'd be honored to help.

As a Certified Sex Therapist, I help committed couples fix their sexual issues and create connected, happy relationships. My clients may worry about speaking to an outsider about their struggles, but I'm not afraid to tackle the hard things about relationships and intimacy with knowledge, humor, and compassion. A poor sex life can cause arguments, pulling away, and sometimes the end of partnerships. If you're ready to work for the sex life you want and deserve, I'd love to help you achieve it. If you'd like to learn more about me, visit my website at annedevine.net, or watch my videos on Youtube.

I have experience counseling children (ages 8 and above), teens, couples , and individuals.
I chose the field of counseling because I believe there is power in being vulnerable and in sharing emotions, even when it’s difficult, uncomfortable, and scary! I want to walk alongside you as you process, heal, learn, and grow. I don't just want to help you manage your symptoms - I want to help you understand them and appreciate the ways they have protected you in the past, and learn new ways to get your needs met today. My goal is to help you trust in yourself and others again, feel joy again, and find hope again.

I am particularly comfortable working with clients on depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship conflicts.
Need help? Are you feeling too afraid, angry, or alone? Reaching out for assistance can be an important step to building internal strength and gaining control over one's emotions. Many may feel guilt or shame in being out of control with these feelings, yet seeking help may be the most effective path to gaining the skills and growing as individuals.

Couples Counseling Therapists

Does couples counseling work?

Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?

Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?

The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?

The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
