About Us
I enjoy working with Couples to create a more secure, stable and loving relationship. As a Psychotherapist and Relationship expert specializing in Couples and Individuals, my approach is Psychobiological and Faith-based. I take into consideration the neuroscience research, now available, attachment theory that explores our bonds and relational teachings from the oldest source which is Scripture. Conflict is an opportunity for growth... We all want to love and be loved well. Let us talk about how we can get better at life and relating to each other.

Can you provide a recommendation for mental health provider software?
Annie from Annie Vance, MFT (Psychotherapist) Answered this on May 30, 2018
I can highly recommend"My Clients Plus" It integrates with a calendar that sends out text reminders, and a low rate Credit Card System at Instamed. I have used others but settled on this as most time saving and effective over the years.Annie V(more)I can highly recommend"My Clients Plus" It integrates with a calendar that sends out text reminders, and a low rate Credit Card System at Instamed.

Make an appointment for him and yourself with a therapist.

Depending on his age, you may want to go with him for the first time especially, and you get to talk to the Tx in front of him about your concerns for him. You get to model good care of him and good self-care by reaching out for professional help, the therapist can step forward from there in discussing with him and you ways to process and understand the traumatic incident and the path forward. have some goals in mind of what you want to achieve. i.e. Boundary setting, self-protection, vigilance, repair and restoration, reporting etc.
