Annette Trincher

I have over 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety and relationship issues. I am Trained by The Linehan Institute/Behavioral Tech. (12/8/14-12/12/14) in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). DBT adapts CBT to assist patients to gain skills such as mindfulness. Mindfulness is an evidence based practice that promotes presence and self awareness. I have seen personally and professionally the direct benefits mindfulness has in reducing anxiety, self doubt, and overthinking. It helps to improve emotion regulation along with emotional and behavioral control or distress tolerance.

I strive to understand my clients and what is preventing them from living the best life possible. I employ techniques to assist people in increasing their emotional and cognitive regulation by learning about the triggers that lead to reactive states and building coping skills to help avoid undesired reactions and break ineffective patterns. You are the expert on yourself. So lets work together to understand what your strengths are and how to build skills to change behaviors that aren't serving you.

My approach is one of mindful exploration to assist you in gaining the awareness of how to be more present in your life. We will explore the behavior patterns that you engage in that are ineffective along with those that serve you. We will learn what your are reacting to and thus how to control engage more intentionally in your life. This will enable freedom from the control of your thoughts and feelings in building the life you desire.
