Lisa Nilon ReddingLPC

My counseling strength is in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT.) Cognitive behavioral therapy is a talking therapy that can help you manage your problems by changing the way you feel, think, and act. The therapy aims to find practical ways to help you deal with problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is a modified type of CBT. Its main goal is to teach people how to live in the moment, develop healthy ways to cope with stress, regulate their emotions, and improve their relationships with others. ( I am certified in DBT.)

With the stress of today, everyone is experiencing some parts of their life that are not what they want it to be. We will find strategies that will help you, I will teach you coping skills that will fit you, and help you process the areas in your life you want to change. You will apply these strategies and be able to see a positive change in your life. I want you to be comfortable coming to see me and feel supported. I come up with lots of ideas to help you on your journey. We will work together to understand the "whys" and build better strategies to improve the areas in your life you want to change. We will look at the ways to improve communication with others and develop good self-esteem. I believe that everyone can succeed when they feel supported and not judged.
