We heal in connection with others. We can grow stronger by being heard. That's the whole idea behind how I do therapy. That can involve skills work from various evidence-based models such as DBT, ACT, and internal family systems. It can also look like getting your body moving in nature. Or sometimes just talking; getting stuff out. In my work, I look to treat the whole person and make sure, first of all that you are understood and known. From there we figure out what you need to keep walking forward on what can be a really confusing and difficult path. We will work to make sure you're headed the direction you want to be.

Do you feel stuck? Whether it’s due to past trauma, anxiety, life transitions, or simply struggling to find yourself. Maybe you've tried therapy before but still feel weighed down by emotions you can’t quite process. You want to heal, move forward, and live life without feeling held back by your past or overwhelmed by your present. Your goal is to finally address the things you've avoided, break free from patterns that no longer serve you, and develop tools to navigate life with confidence.

Many clts often present with problems they have been suppressing in so many different ways. At Healing Touch Services I offer an approach called OARS/MI. This approach allows active listening so the clt knows they are in a safe, peaceful, non-judgmental space. My therapy provides positive programs developed by the clt with the therapist helping guide you through by using coping skills that are suitable for your need. When people know they are being heard and helped, yet being empowered to make their own healthy decisions, it presents a sense of self-respect and dignity to let you reclaim your value and worth. We Never Give Up on You

My name is Lindsey, and I empathize for today's autistic teens & adults struggling in this changing world. We're faced with immediate decision-making & strain, which is not fair when we're trying to figure who we are, much less what we want to become. We typically feel lost, confused, and misunderstood when communicating to others our needs and even interests, therefore struggle asking for help and support in and outside our homes, schools, and community. Whereas this seems to be a "young person's issue," many autistic adults battle these situations as well, struggling with embracing autism as a culture.

Alcohol Use Therapists
Are there specific medications for alcohol use?
There are oral medications approved to treat alcohol use disorder—such as disulfiram, acamprosate, and naltrexone, which also comes in an injectable form. These medications do help people reduce their drinking as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone helps reduce cravings, disulfiram can make a person feel sick when they drink, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
How do alcohol recovery or rehabilitation programs work?
In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other patients in recovery; in outpatient programs,individuals live at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff can also include people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other tools for recovery.
How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?
Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.
How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for alcohol use reduce the amount of alcohol they intake. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.
