Lic Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate, MS, LPC, NCC

Specific techniques that I utilize in my practice include: specialized training in Play Therapy, Sandtray Therapy, and
EMDR
Therapy.
I work to provide a holistic, personal form of care that provides each client with the tools they need to overcome life's challenging moments. I take an integrative approach to helping others better understand how their patterns are impacting their lives and what options they have to do things differently. I utilize a creative, expressive approach to combine art and music into my practice to simulate new pathways in the brain and reprocess trauma. Implementing creativity is a critical component in the healing process and has particular power when working with children and adolescents.

As a therapist with 25 years of experience, I have come to honor and respect all beings who are seeking health, wholeness, emotional re-patterning, or relief from pain, be it physical, emotional, existential or spiritual. No issue is too great or too small. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents who are having difficulty managing their current life's stressors due to past or ongoing trauma, which may be causing depression, anxiety, physical symptoms, and/or relationship difficulties.

If you're seeking an active therapist who does more than just listen then we're probably a good match. I practice strategic goal-focused therapy. You can verify this by watching my videos, reading my book chapters online and reading about my PTSD work at: www.carycounseling.net. My two specialities are
EMDR
for PTSD and marriage counseling. I have published in both areas. The
EMDR
International Association has certified my competence and my theory on the psychophysiological basis for
EMDR
was published in the Journal of
EMDR
Practice & Research. My book "The Marriage First Aid Kit" has helped thousands of troubled marriages.

I assist clients to find their self-worth primarily through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (
EMDR
).
I assist those who want to overcome the pain of past experiences or memories and understand how to live a happy and productive life. I use an integrative approach to help you let go of negative beliefs and behaviors that limit your best self and encourage you to set attainable goals that not only achieve a wellness of your mental health, but also provide healing for your whole person inclusive of your body, mind and spirit. I believe connecting to your past, living in the present and being proactive for the future brings understanding about your behaviors in a more thoughtful way. Ask me about all-day intensive
EMDR
sessions!
Rebecca Knowles Floyd
Licensed Professional Counselor, MEd, LCMHC
Verified
I sometimes offer grief groups and am trained in Mindfulness, CBT, DBT,
EMDR
, and body based strategies.
I am old enough to know that life does not always lend itself to simplistic answers. At various periods we all find ourselves in difficult circumstances that feel overwhelming, sometimes related to life changing tragedies like death, divorce, new medical diagnosis like cancer, job loss, or catastrophic injury. In these situations your life changes in an instant. There is an avalanche of distressing emotions and life no longer feels solid or stable. As a therapist who has experienced some serious, life changing tragedies, I understand those feelings and am specifically trained in grief and trauma.
Kathy B Spurlock
Counselor, LCMHC, SEP, TEB
I have a wide variety of skills in my toolbox, including play therapy, CBT, DBT,
EMDR
, Somatic Experiencing and Transforming The Experienced Based Brain (transforming touch).
**Currently not accepting new Clients**. Life can be challenging at times and wrought with frustrations, sadness or anxieties. However, with therapy, those challenges don't have to be insurmountable. I believe therapy is about guiding you toward an emotionally healthy path in order to create the life you desire. The fact that you are searching for a therapist who feels like a "good fit" for you or your family, is an important first step (and a very courageous one). My goal is to support you along your journey by providing a non-judgmental and respectful atmosphere, as we jointly work toward you finding personal contentment.

As a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor and intensively trained
EMDR
therapist I have a specialty in working with children, adolescents, and families.
I am sorry at this time I am not accepting new clients, I am still accepting consultants and supervisees. Parenting can often feel challenging and overwhelming. Perhaps you find yourself worried about your child or adolescent and scared because you don't know how to help. It is common to feel embarrassed that the family you dreamed of and prayed for isn't the ideal image you had imagined. Seeing your child and family struggle is a scary and lonely feeling and sometimes the parenting books piled next to your bed don't have the answers you need. There must be a way to help your child.

For these situations, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (
EMDR
) or Brainspotting may be great options to consider.
Making the decision to seek therapy is a strength-based step toward creating the life you want. Sometimes we hold on to old patterns that might have helped us in the past, but those patterns no longer serve us. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed or want to learn new coping skills, our work together can identify thoughts that just aren't helpful and we'll work towards finding healthier thought patterns. Then we'll work on building resources that will help you maintain positive changes.

Please EMAIL me only! My goal in counseling is to provide a safe and empathetic space to share, process and grow. As a Christian counselor I integrate psychology and theology in the therapy session as I come alongside my client(s) in reaching their goals. Whether it is trauma-related experiences, relationship hurts, seasons of change or perhaps feeling stuck, I understand sharing your story takes strength and vulnerability which can be hard at times.

I believe that everyone has unlocked potential inside of them. Substance addiction, anxiety, trauma, anger, codependency and fear keep us from achieving our goals and being the best version of ourselves. I strive to help clients see all the amazing qualities they hold within themselves and overcome those obstacles that prevent them from reaching their full potential in all areas of their lives. I utilize a mix of cognitive behavior therapy, reality therapy, and person centered therapy. I am also certified in
EMDR
which is a great evidenced based therapy to treat trauma symptoms, anxiety, personality disorders and depression.

I work with people who primarily experience anxiety, depression, grief, postpartum anxiety/depression, and trauma (sexual and physical abuse).

EMDR Therapists
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an information processing therapy that helps clients cope with trauma, addictions, and phobias. During this treatment, the patient focuses on a specific thought, image, emotion, or sensation while simultaneously watching the therapist's finger or baton move in front of his or her eyes. The client is told to recognize what comes up for him/her when thinking of an image; then the client is told to let it go while doing bilateral stimulation.
