when the risk to remain tight in a bud

Why We’re Here
Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Ventura County
Overcoming life’s considerable challenges or trying to help those you love to do so, can leave anyone feeling overwhelmed and alone. We get it! We know that reaching out to others for help when you aren’t completely convinced things can get better takes true courage and a bit of a leap of faith.
We’re here because we know that if you surround people with those who believe in them wholeheartedly, give them the tools they need to help themselves. Anyone can get unstuck. We bring families, schools, and local agencies and caregivers together as a team. We collaborate on a plan that helps individuals gain confidence by achieving the goals they set for themselves.
Our entire team is committed to helping children, teens and adults to not only function well but to thrive independently at home, in school, at work and in their communities.
Thanks for visiting – and for making the leap.
What’s holding you back?
At some point, all of us get stuck.
We can get caught in a tangle of negative thoughts and feelings without knowing why, then react in ways that can keep us from moving forward. You aren’t the only one, you aren’t alone. Here are some of the behavioral and thought disorders we can help untangle.
Together.
Anger Management. Self Management. Self-Injurious Behavior. Tantrums. Bedwetting. Toileting. Anxiety Disorders. Obsessive Compulsive Disorders. Phobias. Inappropriate Sexual Behavior.
How we can help
Laurie Singer Behavioral Services specializes in behavioral therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Both therapies are based on strong scientific evidence and the understanding that our thoughts, feelings and behaviors are highly interdependent. If you create positive change in one of the three, the other two change for the better as well. CBT also helps individuals challenge the automatic negative thoughts and unproductive core beliefs that can continue to create tangles in life.
Be prepared to actively engage in learning and working toward developing new ways of thinking and behaving. We take a do-more-talk-less approach that helps children, teens and adults become (or rediscover) who they are meant to be, and to do so sooner rather than later.

June is Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, a month dedicated to addressing the mental health needs of men. It recognizes that societal expectations and gender roles often hinder men from seeking help, perpetuating a culture of silence and stigma.
* Surprisingly, men are disproportionately affected by suicide, with suicide rates significantly higher than those of women. This alarming statistic underscores the urgent need to address mental health issues among men.
* Unfortunately, men are often less likely to receive a diagnosis or treatment for mental health conditions, leading to prolonged suffering and potentially worsening outcomes.
* Traditional gender roles and expectations create barriers that prevent men from seeking help, causing delays in diagnosis and treatment.
By raising awareness and promoting open conversations, Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month aims to break down these barriers and encourage men to prioritize their mental well-being. #mensmentalhealth #health #menshealth #mental #mentalhealthawareness
Climate change is making food insecurity a growing concern around the world. With rising temperatures, extended droughts, and unpredictable weather patterns, food production is taking a serious hit.
But climate-smart agriculture (think drought-resistant crops and better soil management) has the potential to increase yields by up to 30%, even in the areas most affected by climate change. By investing in these innovative practices, we can create food systems that are more resilient and capable of feeding our ever-growing populations, even when climate challenges arise.
Women play a crucial role in this transformation, producing up to 80% of the food in many developing countries. By empowering women farmers with access to resources, training, and markets, we can not only boost food production but also strengthen local economies.
Together, we can plant the seeds for a more resilient future—one where farmers are equipped to adapt to a changing climate, and communities can thrive despite the challenges they face. Let’s work together to make this vision a reality!

A very interesting Q&A where Laurie delves in to the connection between endurance sports, goal setting, pushing through adversity and how those lessons can be applied to our everyday lives.
This article discusses Laurie’s 38-year journey heading the fundraiser Jacob’s Run in honor of her son and in support of Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles.
Why do some gravitate towards endurance sports and activities? How does that play out as we get older? And what’s the connection between body and mind? Laurie sat down to discuss those topics and more in this wied-ranging interview.
