Cecilia “Ceci” Garrett,

MSW, LSWAIC

After experiencing and witnessing the positive impacts that mental health care provides, I chose to pursue a degree in clinical social work to bring holistic, comprehensive mental health care to my community. With a primary specialty in hoarding disorder and an entrepreneurial background, I have focused on mastery of my craft and investing in training new providers to increase availability to quality mental health counseling in Moses Lake, WA.

Happy to help…

Counseling for Families

Working with families with teens to support individual and family functioning, especially working on reducing the accommodation of anxiety (social and general). Because it would have been helpful if teens came with an instruction manual, but don’t.

Anxiety

Learning skills to work with the hard-wiring of our brains to keep us safe from all those pesky threats that aren’t as much of a life-or-death threat in today’s world so that we can choose responses to the physical and emotional symptoms of fear.

Stress Management

Stress is real and often overwhelming, making even basic tasks feel too difficult. Stress is the result of past painful learning, and the steps to regaining control of the impacts of stress are often simpler than we think.

Trauma

Bad things happen. Many of us have experienced first-hand the impacts of violence, threats to our safety, and natural disasters, illness, or various forms of abuse. Trauma therapy focuses on releasing stored energy from the body and choosing responses to triggers that are consistent with who we want to be instead of who we feel forced to become.

Grief

The loss of a loved one or relationship requires support to navigate the empty spaces. Friends and family often want to help yet the impacts of grief make it hard to formulate practical ways they can. Grief counseling focuses on acceptance of the complex emotions that follow bereavement, miscarriage, or the end of relationships.

Hoarding/High Clutter

Shopping to feel better? Finding “IT” and bringing it home only to feel overwhelming shame and embarrassment because there’s nowhere to put “IT” now that it’s in your home. This shame coupled with values that make it nearly impossible to part with or release your possessions lead to more bad feelings. Such a vicious cycle. Hope for hoarding is here.
