Getting to know Augustina Garba

Hello and welcome! My focus in a therapeutic setting is to work with you to resolve issues that challenge you. It is also to restore self-efficacy to couples, individuals, and families. I am supportive in therapy and a good listener. I will collaborate with you, using teachable skills, and give you tangible assignments to help you succeed in achieving your goals of finding a long-term, meaningful solution. I am consistent and believe in building a trusting and reliable client-therapist relationship. I provide individual, teen, and couples therapy. My passion has always been to help bring about changes in the lives of individuals, couples, and families while partnering with them to create hope in their future. My approach I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected and to identify negative beliefs and unhealthy behavioral patterns. The goal is to challenge the distorted thoughts by assigning "homework" like practicing new skills and journaling between sessions. I also use other therapeutic techniques like Client-Centered Therapy and Integrated Therapy that combine different approaches to meet your unique needs. My focus Wanting to feel better and reaching out to talk with someone like me is truly a good place to start. I'm so happy that you reached out for help. I work with children, adults, and families, providing individual and family therapy sessions. I also work with adult survivors of childhood abuse. My focus is to help them heal from their trauma and overcome related issues and problems that could develop due to their abuse. These could range from depression, anxiety, PTSD, panic attacks and stress. I work with many individuals and couples in relationship building. I counsel couples with relationship and divorce issues, anger management and domestic violence.
