Annika Garrett, AMFT

Are you having problems with constant worries, sadness, or lack of motivation? Is being overwhelmed causing you to lash out or withdraw from your loved ones, maybe even cope in harmful or unhealthy ways? You should know you are not alone and there is help. As an associate marriage and family therapist my goal is to help you develop confidence in yourself and how you connect with your loved ones. Together we can work through difficult feelings and experiences while learning new skills to express your truth.

Utilizing dialectical behavioral therapy skills, like mindfulness, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, will provide you with a strong foundation for healthy coping and expression. Together we can tackle trauma, stress, anxiety, depression and much more. Listening and validating your experience is my narrative approach in helping alleviate the weight of internal struggles.

When we are suffering it can affect the ones we love the most, which is why I enjoy working not only with individuals, but families and couples as well. My expertise lies with parents and adolescents. I have worked for 4 years at adolescent mental health facilities of inpatient and outpatient treatment centers, schools, and clinics. I offer a systemic view that incorporates the many dynamic aspects a family brings into the room. Tailoring treatment to what is most important to you, your family, and your safety is my priority.
