“With hard work, support, and a little bit of humor; change can happen. I believe it is important to remember the upside of life when looking at the downside of life. Too many of us get wrapped up in the stressors of life that we forget what resources we have right in front of us. With support and hard work, we can utilize those resources, including humor, resiliency, determination, and persistence.”

Dr. Anderson has worked in a variety of settings, including outpatient, foster care, and a therapeutic day school. She provides individual psychotherapy, family therapy, and group therapy for children and adolescents.

Dr. Anderson utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with other modalities, to help each person obtain their therapy goals.
