Is tinnitus disrupting your life? Are other health problems making it difficult for you or your child to enjoy the things you want to do? Managing health conditions can be tough, and depression and anxiety can come along too. Let’s work together and ease your symptoms. Let’s get your life back. I help children, teens and adults find strategies that work for them, using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, equine-assisted psychotherapy, and other research-supported treatments.
In my private practice, we can calm your tinnitus (ringing in your ears) with CBT combined with ACT and mindfulness, customized for your unique tinnitus journey. There is hope for long lasting peace. You can find more information at www.MacknerPsychology. com.
At PBJ Connections, I focus on other health conditions, depression, anxiety, and emotion regulation at farms in Pataskala and Galena (equine-assisted therapy), and in office settings in Galena and New Albany. In all that I do, my goal is to provide kind and understanding support as we navigate physical, mental and behavioral health together.
