About
Accepting New Clients. All are welcome at Azure Stone Mental Health & Wellness. As the seasons change, emotional and behavioral changes may become more pronounced. Behaviors & Big Feelings like anxiety & depression often re-emerge with both adults and youth. Struggles with paying attention and sitting still in the classroom are preventing students from doing their best. I have been working with Children, Adolescents, & Adults for 30 years who have anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem, & behavioral issues. Educating parents about how to better cope & care for their children makes a dramatic positive effect on the entire family. By combining playful interactions with serious discussions, we can create a holistic therapy experience that benefits both children & parents. If you have specific topics you'd like more guidance on or any questions about methods or approaches, feel free to ask! I teach DBT Skills to improve emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectivenes I have been working with Children, Adolescents, and Adults for 30 years. My clients have described me as "kind, outgoing, friendly, with a great sense of humor, strongly empathetic, loves to laugh as well as “sunshine personified.” Specialties: I work with children, adolescent and adult clients who are struggling with anxiety and depression in order to teach them skills about how to manage their "big feelings" through humor and empathy. I feel it is important to have the skills to handle the "tough stuff" as clients process their trauma. Credentials & Experience: I have 30 years experience working with adults, children, adolescents, and their families in order to improve communication skills and how to manage their intense emotions. I have extensive experience teaching DBT Skills to adolescents and adults.
"I often use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to teach skills to manage thoughts and feelings and how they affect our behaviors. I love the use of therapeutic games to provide clients an avenue to explore topics in a non-threatening manner while having fun. At the beginning of therapy we will identify positive coping skills, how to enhance, and use them more often."
