Hello and thank you for exploring our website. I am the owner here at Lakeside Counseling and Wellness Center and we are pleased to help you meet your goals and live your best life.
I opened my private practice in 2015 and I saw that most of the emotional problems that people face seem to be connected to a traumatic event or events that occurred at some point in the past. I became very interested in how our brains work to process and store information and memories, especially traumatic memories, and how we can update the way memories are stored, which then changes the way we feel about them.
My clinical work is limited to short term (2-6) sessions using Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). ART is an evidence-based form of therapy that is effective for traumatic responses such as PTSD or acute distress, anxiety and grief. It helps to update the way your brain stores a memory, which changes the way clients feel about them. It is a remarkable form of therapy that creates positive changes in as little as one session. You can learn more about ART here- https://acceleratedresolutiontherapy.com/what-is-art/
