Is it time to make some changes? Ready to chart a new course and feel better?
I'm Kathy Ventry, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, #86507, and at Peace Within I love helping people live happier and more fulfilling lives. Lives of active engagement and connection. If you're gripped by paralyzing anxiety, isolating yourself, engaging in obsessive thinking and compulsions, you're in the right place. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders to include Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. I've found a blend of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Exposure Therapy to be highly effective. I work in a compassionate and nonjudgmental manner and will go at your pace.
For trauma and PTSD I offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy and Brainspotting that can help your body understand that the trauma is indeed over. I'm also trained in Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) to help manage Tourette Syndrome and Tic Disorder.
In addition, I work with couples to rebuild connection and add warmth back into the relationship. I have many tools and resources to help you turn things around and live the life you want to live!
