PSYCHOTHERAPY
Dr. Michelle Babcock works with adults (ages 18 and up) using Insight-Oriented Therapy, but when needed, she incorporates strategies from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, or trauma-informed modalities. She believes that therapy is a sacred and personal experience that offers an opportunity for an individual to get to know oneself.
Dr. Babcock provides a warm environment where she will walk beside you, and help direct your focus inward to:
-
Increase awareness of your thoughts, emotions, or behaviors and how these influence your psychological health
-
Identify repeating patterns, and
-
Help change how you relate to yourself and the world
At times, this focus inward can be challenging and uncomfortable; however, through increased awareness, you will be better able to make more informed choices about how you want to move through this world. There are no guarantees for change, and the outcome largely depends on how willingly you engage in this process and incorporate new behaviors into your daily life.
Dr. Babcock also specializes in remediation therapy to help patients who have cognitive deficits or experienced cognitive decline associated with executive dysfunction, memory problems, concussion, brain-injury, medical conditions and dementia as well as individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, caregiver stress, grief, and other mood disturbances. Dr. Babcock’s approach involves helping individuals and family members learn about the function of their brains and the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, while using evidence-based treatments to enhance treatment outcomes.
