How do you work with clients with anxiety?

Hello! I’m Barbara Abigide, a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner-Board Certified (PMHNP-BC), deeply committed to providing holistic and compassionate mental health care. With years of experience across various healthcare settings, I specialize in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and mood disorders. I believe mental health is a cornerstone of overall wellness. My approach focuses on creating a safe, judgment-free space where you feel heard and supported. I prioritize developing personalized treatment plans tailored to your unique needs, incorporating evidence-based practices like medication management, psychotherapy, and lifestyle interventions. In addition to addressing immediate concerns, I emphasize preventive care and education. I work closely with my patients to identify triggers, build coping mechanisms, and foster resilience. Communication is central to my practice—I ensure you and your family are well-informed, comfortable with treatment decisions, and actively involved in the care process. Whether you’re seeking guidance for a specific challenge or long-term support for mental health management, I’m here to help. Together, we’ll work toward achieving balance, mental clarity, and a fulfilling life. Thank you for trusting me on your mental health journey. Treatment Philosophy: My treatment philosophy is grounded in providing compassionate, patient-centered mental health care. I focus on holistic approaches, combining evidence-based practices with personalized care plans to address your unique needs. I believe in fostering a collaborative partnership, empowering you to actively participate in your treatment. By emphasizing education, prevention, and open communication, I aim to guide you toward mental well-being and a better quality of life.

I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner fostering care across the life span fully licensed in Colorado, Florida, California, and Oregon. I provide initial evaluation and ongoing management of psychiatric medications, supportive counseling, health education, ketamine evaluations, and ketamine assisted psychotherapy. I believe in treating the whole mind, body, and spirit. I feel that it is vital to provide support structuring lives in a manageable way that allows treating the root cause of underlying symptoms-working together developing a treatment plan that we are both comfortable with. I believe strong relationships are the key to a successful healing process. I want to truly get to know you so I may provide optimal health care. This is why my appointments are longer than those typically offered by other mental health providers. In my first year at Maryville University, I developed a deep interest in psychedelic medicine and its healing powers. I continued my training within the ketamine space after school until I was able to incorporate it into my practice in an effort to heal deep-seeded traumatic wounds of others. It is my hope that I can continue to help many others heal in a similar fashion in order to live joyful lives to their fullest potential whether that it through ketamine or psychiatric medications.

Hi, I'm Morgan! As a compassionate clinician with a background in Art Therapy and Counseling, I am dedicated to assisting children, adolescences, and families in resolving internal conflicts and promoting self-confidence.  Art Therapy is a safe way to explore prominent themes of identity, trauma, emotion regulation, and self-esteem. Art therapy interventions that promote creative expression can foster healing and mental well-being. No previous art experience is required as each session is about the process, not the product's quality. My art therapy specialization encourages collaboration, goal-setting, and focusing on individual strengths while acknowledging the challenges you hope to overcome. I specialize in working alongside individuals that have experienced various behavioral, emotional, and psychosocial circumstances. I have experience supporting LGBTQIA+ populations coping with complex trauma, suicidal ideations, and self-injurious behaviors. Individuals of all ages face interpersonal conflicts, and I aim to provide a comforting, warm, and non-judgmental environment promoting insight and self-empowerment.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice for 25 years. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, stress management, relationships and substance abuse. I believe therapy is a collaborative process where the client brings strengths and I can teach tools that will help navigate a healthier future.

Hi! I am a passionate therapist with a focus on Holistic wellness & healing. Mind, body, and spirit balance and clarity are two vital components to living a healthier and happier life!

I am a Texas LPC. I have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field in various roles. I have a deep passion for working with people experiencing the effects of trauma. People are often nervous about beginning therapy; either they don't know what to expect or they've had some bad experiences in the past. We will collaborate to find the best strategies for you. We will talk about some things directly; we will address other things indirectly; each of these approaches work in different ways to assist you in processing and letting go of the pain and gaining new perspectives. I am certified by the Veteran's Health Administration to use the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale. I am also trained in Trauma-focused CBT. I am also a menopause coach, which means I can use both my coaching knowledge regarding menopause alongside therapy to address these women's issues. When you know something needs to change but aren't sure what to do, reach out to me. We can work together to find solutions. I always say, "If you want something different, you've got to do something different." The first step can be the most difficult. Let's connect!
