Achieving mental wellness often includes using several different tools including modifying lifestyle behaviors, optimizing or even minimizing medications, and improving diet or gut health. Counseling is one of those tools whether it be brief or a regular part of the journey to wellness. Counseling strategies used at Lupine Mental Health target each client’s unique needs and values and involve techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and mindfulness. Sue also offers ADHD coaching for adults.

Discovering and finding the right therapy tools for you and working with a therapist that you resonate with is essential to achieve your mental health wellness. If the therapy options offered at Lupine Mental Health do not address your needs, Sue can help you find a therapist that is right for you through offering recommendations or referrals for other therapists.
