Geriatric and Seniors Therapists in Springfield, OH

This is your journey, and as your therapist, I can be a helpful guide along the way. Sometimes folks are afraid of "starting over with a new therapist" or "having to rehash the past". It's totally valid to be nervous about opening up to a new person, practically a stranger, but the good news is, we can start right where you are! I have found my "home" as a therapist with the intervention called EMDR, but have witnessed the benefits of other interventions I am trained in including: CBT, DBT, CAMS, and Expressive Arts Therapies. Suicidal ideation, depression, and trauma (including surviving abuse) are my specialties.

I listen to patients. They are the most important people in therapy. I believe that sometimes clients will provide you an answer to their problems. My approach is to reveal what is already known. To do that you need to listen. I believe that hypnosis is powerful . It can develop issues related to the clients problem in a short time.

I work with children, adults, and elderly in a small comfortable setting, treating behavior problems, depression, anxiety, and helping families plan for end of life issues. My hours are flexible to accommodate work and school schedules. I start appointments as early as 8:30AM, have evening appointments, and am willing to do telephone counseling.

Hello and welcome. My name is Anne Mallett. I am the founder and provider of the outpatient therapy practice Grit & Grace Inspired. If you’ve been hit so hard by life that it’s knocked you off your feet and dropped you down to your knees, yet you’re determined to find a way to rise back up and persevere- it would be an honor to meet and work with you.

18 years of counseling experience has taught me that we must examine what is happening beneath your symptoms. Your body holds on to painful memories and the engine inside revs continually until it finally cannot withstand any longer. It emits uncomfortable body sensations and emotions until the pain becomes enough to get your full attention. I'll help you "turn off the engine" of trauma so you can engage a system of thoughts, beliefs, and emotions that help you feel more like yourself again.

We all want to feel whole, healed and healthy. I can collaborate with you to help you overcome challenges related to depression, anxiety, trauma, complicated grief, life adjustments, and low self-esteem. I am here to support you in achieving your goals and improving your relationships -- with yourself and with others. I will meet you where you are with empathy, an open mind, and a commitment to helping you pave a path toward deeper self-understanding, healing, and self-empowerment.

There are few professional relationships where trust, a commitment to openness, and creating a safe environment are more important than in the client/therapist dynamic. Finding the right therapist can be a difficult but essential feature in creating personal growth and fulfillment. It is my passionate belief that this working relationship between client and therapist is the foundation of successful treatment. I have over sixteen years of experience working with a broad and varied range of individuals struggling with a myriad of challenges, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, eating disorders, isolation, sexuality, gender identity, and relationship issues.

clients' want to feel better emotionally with less anxiety. clients' want to feel more in control of their feelings and to communicate more clearly. clients' want to work with a therapist who understands them and the goals they want to attain. clients' want to be heard and treated with respect. clients' bring sensitive issues to the counseling session and want to feel safe to open up to the therapist. clients' want to be accepted despite their feelings of isolation and hopelessness.

I strive to actively listen to the concerns and needs of people seeking help for their situation. It is through the act of listening that I can learn the dynamics that each person is working through. Helping an individual overcome and work through those dynamics is what I try to do each session. This also includes helping someone create better direction for themselves by creating realistic goals within a practical timeline. I approach their situation with common sense and empathy to help guide them towards their stated goals.

I enjoy all aspects of family therapy with a specialized interest upon the roles and demands of women (individual, children, family, disability, geriatric, addiction, marriage and care taking). To help build upon progress and create additional movement toward goals, I use a systems perspective to better understand the basis for behaviors and potential levers for change using an assortment of empirically and evidence-based approaches. I have served on the Ohio NASW Ethics Committee and firmly believes in the importance of ethical practice, meeting patients where they are, while creating a safe and empathetic environment for change.

I join with individuals, couples, and families collaboratively to explore ways to live healthier, more balanced lives. I understand that things such as anxiety, depression, or trauma history can be overwhelming for the individual and family members leading to a variety of symptoms and situational difficulties. I am comfortable working with a variety of difficult topics such as suicidal ideation or self harm and enjoy working with family systems to improve communication patterns and increase positive behaviors and connection in the home.

Taking a step towards mental wellness can be overwhelming, but I am here to walk you through the process. I provide a safe, and flexible environment for clients to explore their goals in life and I empower individuals to make a plan for healing. Each plan of care is created with an individually focused lens that allows clients to maintain control of their goals and action steps towards wellness. Although my approach is integrative and person-centered, I most often utilize CBT, mindfulness, supportive, strength-based and couples therapy techniques within my sessions.

Having had experienced many losses in my life, I often wonder what to do next or how to move forward. Sometimes life happens so quickly that it seems like there is not enough time to catch a breath. It's a scary feeling to have to figure out the hustle and bustle of life while still hurting inside. Fearful of being misunderstood, judged or like "it" may not work may be the negative thoughts that have developed during such a devastating loss.

Living in balance is the ongoing goal I hope for my clients. Whether it be to repair relationships, working on achieving your personal best, learning to handle mental illness, moving towards forgiveness, or handling life changes, we can always move towards making positive changes to live a more satisfying life.

It’s amazing how different life can look when we shift our focus. A fresh perspective and a change of perception can go a long way for old habits and patterns of thinking. Renewing our minds is transformative! Whether this a tough season for you or you feel like you’ve been in the wilderness all of your life, change can happen. Truth be told, counseling is hard work. Showing up for yourself is hard and confronting areas you need to change is hard. Staying the same is hard…to all of that, we do our best to "choose our hard"! You don't have to do this alone! Relationship concerns? Anxiety? Depression? Divorce, etc? All of the above?
