We work with you to uncover and address the underlying causes of your anxiety or depression,  and develop coping strategies to help you manage the symptoms.

INSOMNIA

Stress, anxiety, or poor sleep habits could be negatively impacting your quality of sleep. We will identify and treat the factors contributing to your insomnia and optimize your time in bed and improve your sleep quality.

FAMILIES

Behavior concerns and communication barriers within the home can have a big impact.  We use the family-systems theory and solution focused therapy to improve these areas with the goal of healing and recovery.

Trauma

Experiencing trauma affects both mental and physical health, and quality treatment of the symptoms related to it is complex. It is rare to find a therapist trained in all four evidence based therapies for trauma - including EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral therapy for trauma, but that is what you will find at Balanced Growth, the ability to choose from the best practices the therapy that will be best for you.​

SELF CONTROL

Anger or irritability can become more pronounced over time or increased while our tolerance for frustrating and annoying things decreases.  When uncontrolled this causes problems with relationships. Developing effective coping strategies to manage and regulate emotions, improve communication skills, will lead to healthier relationships, and more control over difficult or stressful experiences.

COUPLES

Relationships are complicated and over time stress impacts the health of the couple. Our goal is to increase connections between you and your partner with tools to better understand one another's emotions, overcome past hurt, improve communication, and thrive as a couple.

TESTIMONIALS

"Balanced Growth has taught me how to manage my anxiety and stress by using different techniques to improve how I think and process situations that affect me as well as being a person I am comfortable talking to. She is understanding of my feelings and emotions to new things and helps me adapt and understand them as well. I have grown as a person by learning more about myself and who I truly am on the inside no matter what adversity I have experienced. The most growth I have felt since working with Jess at Balanced Growth has been my confidence; I feel like I understand more about myself than I ever have and feel reassured with myself. I would absolutely tell any athlete no matter what level to work with Balanced Growth because they are understanding of different sports, aspects of life and personal lives. I have improved so much as a person working with Jess and am thankful to move forward into adulthood with strategies many young adults my age do not 

have."
