Myndworx Counseling Group

We offer individual, couples, and family therapy to help heal relationships. We do this by increasing insight and acceptance, improving communication skills, and teaching conflict resolution and de-escalation strategies.

Anxiety can appear one of two ways either as a feeling such as panic attacks, nausea, a general feeling of unease, or as racing thoughts, fixation, overthinking and a feeling of being stuck or unable to move past something. We help clients with anxiety through a variety of interventions including teaching emotional regulation coping skills, teaching skills to manage and examine thoughts and working on behavioral strategies related to reactions to these thoughts and feelings.

Depression typically appears as feeling a lack of motivation, loss of the feeling of enjoyment while participating in activities, difficulty with sleep or sleeping too much, loss of appetite or overeating, isolating from or avoiding people who care about you, and feelings of hopelessness, despair or sadness more often than not. We help with this by exploring how thoughts emotions and actions are connected, examining thoughts, and developing a plan for actions that can create change.

We believe that thoughts feelings and actions are connected. We work with clients to understand these connections, how they present in the body, and the external result of behaviors. We develop action plans to begin to take control of thoughts, regulate emotions and determine the actions that are in alignment with the life they desire.

Acceptance and commitment therapy is focused on radical acceptance, the acceptance of reality as it is and a commitment to the actions that the client will take. Cognitive behavioral therapy is an underpinning theoretical framework of acceptance and commitment therapy. Here we will focus on acceptance of all facets of self and others, and commitment to change.

We work with relationships of all types including siblings, parent child, couples , friends, work and so forth. Sometimes we work with both people and sometimes we work with one individual who is willing to participate and change their own relational style. We do this by exploring interaction styles, examining communication patterns of criticism, defensiveness, contempt and stonewalling as well as escalation of conflict. We teach skills to deescalate conflict and build connection.
