George Holbrook

Hello my name is George Holbrook. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology with over 35+ years of experience as a licensed Marriage Family Therapist with an emphasis on helping individuals and families with difficult life circumstances, specifically in the areas of addiction and substance abuse. I utilize techniques from a variety of theoretical orientations with a collaborative and directive approach. I am invested in an approach emphasizing a more integrative, dynamic, and holistic approach to helping my clients heal.

During the therapy process, I assist clients in discovering their strengths, building support systems, and developing a healthy lifestyle to set the foundation for life success. I am particularly focused on the impact of loss, grief, and trauma on my clients physical, emotional and relationship health. When requested I incorporate clients' spiritual beliefs into the treatment protocol to holistically address their needs.

I take an action-oriented approach that focuses on the relationship between your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. Through identifying unhelpful patterns of thinking, we can determine what has led you to feel unhappy, overwhelmed, stressed, angry, frustrated, or hopeless. By addressing these patterns, we can work together to develop more constructive ways of approaching these areas that will lead to healthier behaviors for solving problems and learn to replace less effective coping skills with positive ones that enhance your life.
