While it's not unusual for anyone to experience anxiety, depression, or trauma it just doesn't feel good. You don't feel like yourself and maybe haven't for a long time. With therapy you can reduce these symptoms. I believe it is important to give yourself a chance to explore how to empower yourself to make the changes that you want. Let's get your life back on track.
I've been trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment therapy, substance abuse counseling and hold certifications in both EMDR and for the treatment of anxiety. I offer to explore what you want from therapy and to set the goals that are reachable and attainable. I have over 25+ years of experience.
I have treated many clients over the years and understand the importance of being understood, heard, and supported at a therapy pace that suits you. I encourage you to take the next steps and reach out.
Take the first step to help. Call or Ruth K Brown now - (571) 777-0386

I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR. In the first or several sessions we will explore your treatment needs and your goals. With CBT you will learn how to push back unwanted thoughts. With EMDR you can resolve trauma and implement new coping skills. I find using both approaches maximizes outcomes.
