Find a Therapist in Flowery Branch, Georgia.

Do you ever feel too overwhelmed to deal with your problems? If so, you're not alone. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than a quarter of American adults experience depression or anxiety in any given year. Bridgette's compassionate style and expertise in psychotherapy makes her a perfect choice to help you. Working together you will resolve the underlying issues which fuel ongoing issues leading to healing and allow for positive growth in your life.

What is psychotherapy? It is a fancy word that simply says that you are digging down to deal with the root causes with a therapist rather than just addressing the surface symptoms. By working toward resolving the root causes, your symptoms can subside and possibly go away all together. It is possible to get unstuck and move forward toward health, well-being, and proactive change. Although it may not be easy at times, it can be fulfilling, exciting, and inspiring.

Counselors often use cognitive behavioral therapy with clients. During episodes of anxiety or depression, people frequently exhibit extreme thinking patterns, and cognitive therapy can help them bring their thinking into perspective. If a counselor feels that issues from long ago (for example, trauma or childhood neglect) are emerging as anxiety or depression, she may employ EMDR. Other types of therapy include solution-focused brief therapy and mindfulness therapy can be used.

Psychotherapy can profoundly change a person's life, helping them to increase self- and other- awareness through the on-on-one meetings or through groups designed to facilitate growth. Therapy helps people gain traction to overcome intra-personal or inter-personal problems in healthy ways. What is learned in the counseling setting can be transferred outside of counseling to enhance ways of being that are healthy and rewarding. I utilize a range of methods to help clients accomplish their goals.

I offer brief, results-oriented psychotherapy. My approach is to identify and resolve how specific, unresolved upsetting or traumatic events are getting activated in present day situations and contributing to negative beliefs about yourself in certain situations or repetitive, self-sabotaging patterns in your personal relationships or at work. I have advanced training and experience in helping clients understand and heal from many types of distressing events. Often we think these experiences are not a big deal or no longer influencing us, but they often compromise your ability to be yourself, achieve your goals and enjoy life more. See the Client Reviews section of my website for more.

When you say Psychotherapy, you are really saying counseling. I think that many people come in to therapy and they want to communicate about their life problems or hardships. I support this. If someone wants to talk, I am a good listener. I am a proactive person and I want to support people as they communicate their problems with actions as well as supporting their communication. The action plans are the types of therapies in which I specialize. If someone just wants to talk, then they miss out on positive change that can occur and greatly help them in life.

Psychotherapy at Path to Change includes options for individual, couples, teens, children and families. We will work with you to discover practical strategies and also to pursue deeper healing from trauma and childhood wounding, when needed. We offer a wide range of counselors with many areas of expertise. When you reach out, your needs will be assessed and you will be matched with the counselor most able to meet your needs.

Psychotherapy can help you to gain increased understanding of yourself, to see yourself in relation to others, and to help you process your experiences and explore your options and new opportunities. I want to help you learn to love and accept yourself more, and to believe that deep inside, you contain the key to unlock the door to a happier, more meaningful, more fulfilling life. I don't create this for you; I am more of a guide that helps you get there so you don't have to go it alone. This is done in a therapeutic relationship that creates trust, emotional intimacy, in a space of privacy and confidentiality. You will be very comfortable with my warm, nurturing, and client-centered style.

You are well on your way to your recovery, as you have taken a very important step towards your healing today. I help support my clients by listening to their concerns and helping to support them in a safe space. You are not alone, I look forward to helping you in your journey. Let's schedule your session to discuss what your need for support maybe.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.
