Dr. Minatrea is an advocate of positive psychology, which focuses on strengths and doing more of what works, not just labeling problems. Positive psychology also includes things like hope, forgiveness, and gratitude...not just looking at what is wrong, but finding a way out. Within a positive framework, Dr. Minatrea uses cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which looks at how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. She seeks to provide care for the whole person--body, mind, and spirit.

My psychotherapy approach is dedicated to supporting individuals navigating a spectrum of mental health conditions and emotional challenges. Beyond symptom relief, it focuses on identifying psychological root causes, fostering enhanced emotional well-being and holistic healing. Psychotherapy proves beneficial for diverse conditions, including managing stress, coping with trauma, addressing the impact of medical illness or loss, such as the death of a loved one, and treating specific mental health issues like depression or anxiety. Given the range of psychotherapies available, each may be tailored to specific clinical situations, ensuring a personalized and effective treatment plan.

psychotherapy is a transformative process that offers people a safe and supportive place to explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

Talk therapy can be helpful with a wide range of issues. I want to work with you not just to get to the root of the issues that make it difficult to cope with life, but also the secret strengths you have that can make things easier. I am strengths focused, and able to help you with quick, short term advancements. I am also available for long term sessions so we can reinforce the things we learn along the way.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy is a process that allows people to overcome their own limitations. We often don't know how to do things differently and we end up getting the same results over and over again. Through talk therapy, we can look at these limitations and work together to make changes in how you think and how you act. The results then change and you will find yourself in new and healthier places in your relationships, and your life.

I create a safe environment for clients to be open and process their emotions. I will walk with you to identify experiences that may impede your sense of self. Many clients I see are working through issues related to family of origin. Once these issues are identified we begin to understand the underlying cause of our behaviors. The pain of childhood wounds, traumas, and old patterns and beliefs can negatively affect all aspects of life. I believe everyone has an inner knowing and the ability to heal. I will assist you to understand the dynamics of your family of origin so you can move forward in your life with courage.

In my approach to psychotherapy, I integrate multiple therapeutic modalities to a Christian foundation to provide the best and tailored experience for my clients. Psychoeducation is a key component, as I believe in empowering individuals with knowledge about their mental and emotional health and equipping them with strategies. I also incorporate Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), to address emotional blockages and promote emotional healing. Furthermore, I draw upon the principles of existential therapy to explore clients' search for meaning and personal growth. I utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), techniques to identify and challenge negative thought patterns and beliefs.

Psychotherapy can provide a setting for you to sit, talk, think, and feel. As you do so in a supportive and understanding space, you will be able to develop more mature conclusions about your circumstances. For example, you might begin to see areas where you have relinquished your power and in so doing, reclaim your power. Psychotherapy provides a unique opportunity to identify your patterns, develop self-awareness, and make new choices.

I use two modalities in my practice: restoration therapy and biblical principles. Restoration therapy addresses the root causes of emotional and mental health issues, restoring relationships with God, self, and others. Biblical principles provide guidance and insight for my clients, helping them find hope, healing, and direction through their faith. Together, these two modalities provide a comprehensive approach to promoting personal growth and healing.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

Psychotherapy is collaborative effort between you and I, so that we can help you change your life. You bring your experiences and situations to me, and I give you feedback that can help you reach your goals. We will look at your thinking and I will show you how this impacts how you feel and the decisions that you make. We will also look at problems in your life and create solutions to these problems. Then we discuss how you can apply new decision-making patterns to other similar situations as they arise. Call or e-mail me today to set up a consultation to learn more about how psychotherapy can help you with your current situation and problems.

Individual counseling may be oriented towards helping clients achieve their goals for their own personal development. People can grow, develop, and have positive change happen in their core beliefs, well into later stages of life. Younger or even mid-life clients may present with problems regarding sexuality or being at peace with their single sexuality. The Master Designer created us as sexual beings and much of my practice is aimed at helping clients overcome sexual anorexia or the other end of that continuum, sexual addiction and/or pornography addiction (with the added markers of distress being present.) Sex Therapy from a Christian perspective is a large part of my practice.

I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which is a present focused psychotherapy and uses elements of traditional psychotherapy where the historical data is relevant to the present circumstances, thoughts and feelings that are being addressed. The client sets the agenda collaboratively with the therapist during each session. The client gains the tools over the course of therapy to use for a lifetime. Many clients see results quickly with CBT, and most see substantial results in 15 sessions.

Psychotherapy is a collaborative journey towards healing and self-discovery. Our skilled therapists offer a safe and nurturing space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with honesty and compassion. Through evidence-based techniques and a holistic approach, we work together to address a wide range of concerns, from mental health disorders to life transitions and relationship issues. Whether you're seeking short-term solutions or deeper insight, psychotherapy provides a supportive framework for personal growth and transformation. Together, we'll embark on a path towards greater self-awareness.

Psychotherapy is about gaining self-awareness. When we can identify negative self-talk, we can begin to challenge it and replace it with healthy, positive self-talk. When we understand communication and relationship patterns, we can learn to set boundaries and create new patterns of behavior. When we learn that we are engaging in people-pleasing behaviors, we can explore why and then begin to seek validation from ourselves rather than someone else. Everyone has value.

I provide psychotherapy to adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, career, and relationship stress. Therapy can be effective in helping you identify and process your emotions, untangle your thoughts and worries, heal from past wounds/relationships, and improve your confidence. When you schedule your first initial session with me, we will work together to determine what you want to get out of therapy and create an action plan of how to get there. Each session we will focus on a therapy goal and start exploring how to get closer to that goal through processing, activities, techniques, and research-based interventions.

My approach to therapy is not a quick fix or a band-aid approach. It is not self-help advice or executive coaching. It is a process of research-proven, emotional surgery that gets at the heart of your issues and heals them at their source. If you’re like many of my clients, you’ve conquered in the workplace and found success. And yet, you’re not at peace with your life. Whether it’s stress, trauma, addiction, strained relationships, or a lack of motivation, something needs to change. Often, my role is to help successful men get their hearts back. I can help you rediscover your purpose, reconnect with what matters, heal your insecurities, improve your relationships, and leave a legacy.

I work with clients to uncover unproductive thought patterns and behavioral choices. Through talk therapy, we investigate the thoughts and beliefs that hold you back and keep you repeating the same cycle with the same results. I approach therapy from a no-judgment, compassionate vantage and work with you to alleviate the fear, stress and anxiety that keeps you "stuck".

Underwood Counseling & Consultation, PLLC takes an approach to treatment that is an integrated wellness model. We have worked extensively in the treatment of performance based anxieties, co-occurring chronic health conditions, & severe mental health diagnoses as well as in the treatment of trauma & adverse life events. We use research supported treatments such as EMDR, CBT, ART & Family System therapy.

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

There is a great value to having someone who hears you. Your story. Psychotherapy provides an ally. Someone who isn't there to judge, but there to listen and hear Your voice. Your therapist can provide an outside interpretation that is informed by their education, training and experience. Maybe you aren't alone. Maybe you don't have to do it on your own.

Psychotherapy is one of the best and most effective ways to improve an individuals quality of life. More people should utilize this tool, which can provide an objective, unbiased perspective for the challenges that people face in their lives. As a therapist, I will collaborate and support you in finding constructive ways to deal with your concerns and problems.
