Services Offered

Children & Teens:

Children and teens seen at our office may be experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, grief/loss, depression, and/or difficulty adjusting to life changes such as divorce. Often, children and teens may benefit from having a safe, nonjudgmental person outside of the family to talk with and process what they are experiencing.

Ms. Baumann utilizes play therapy techniques in her work with child clients. Play therapy allows children the ability to express their feelings and work through problems they may not yet have the ability to verbalize. When working with teen clients, Ms. Baumann uses a blend of traditional talk therapy and creative interventions and activities.

“In play therapy, toys are like the child's words and play is the child's language (Landreth, 2002).”

Adults:

Adults often seek counseling when they are experiencing stress, anxiety, anger, life transitions, and/or depression. Ms. Baumann believes in providing encouragement, support, and perspective, by joining individuals on their journey of change and growth. Ms. Baumann incorporates a variety of interventions in her practice and customizes her approach to provide individualized care specific to each client’s unique needs, pulling largely from client-centered and cognitive-behavioral therapies.
