Meet Krista Seabrook, LCSW

Are you a constant worrier about anything and everything? Maybe you experience intense feelings when being in the presence of large groups. Sometimes, we also experience something that impacts us for months and years moving forward.

Here are the types of anxiety that you and I can address together:

• General Anxiety

  • Day to day worrying that weighs heavy on you

• Social Phobias/Social Anxiety

  • Feeling extreme discomfort in the presence of new people and larger groups. Avoiding social scenarios and settings may feel more comfortable to you.

• Anxiety from trauma and PTSD

  • Have you experienced a life changing event that causes daily disruption? Understanding what is happening inside your body and knowing how to work with, not against, your nervous system is where we can start.

This area is all encompassing for the areas of life that can easily become stressful and messy. Major life events, changes , and transitions can be difficult to cope with on our own. Sometimes, we feel like we are at a crossroad and don't know where to go. Below are topics we can process together to make sense of the world:

• Divorce (partner or parent) and break ups

• Grief and loss

• Planning for/Going away to College

• Changes in peer groups

• "Real World"/"Adulting" worries after college

• Newly blended family

• Planning to start a family

• Relocation to a new city/state

• ..and many more

Conflict may arise from personality differences or even negative emotional interactions with others.

• Conflict with self

  • Trouble with identifying who you truly are and what you value

  • Not knowing or understanding what your purpose may be

  • Feeling stuck between staying in your comfort zone, but wanting to make change

• Conflict with others

  • Romantic relationships have natural ebbs and flows; but maybe it feels like it's causing too much tension and on the verge of breaking

  • Peer conflict is common, especially in teenage years. Gain an understanding of how to work through this conflict with communication and perspective taking

  • Family conflict can cause disruption in an entire household. Learning communication styles, "fair fighting rules", and establishing boundaries is key to success.

No matter your age, ADD can be disruptive and unruly. Working on concrete skills to establish routine is essential to decreasing unwanted forgetfulness and increasing intentional behaviors. 

• Trouble studying/completing work

• Forgetting "simple" daily tasks

• Difficulty sitting still throughout the day

• Being labeled as a daydreamer
