	ANNE MILLIGAN, LCSW PROFESSIONAL TOWERS BLDG. 4010 DUPONT CIRCLE #480 LOUISVILLE, KY 40207 502-423-0220 info@annemilligan.com Are your relationships out of balance? Have you found yourself struggling with the same personal issues for a long time but getting nowhere? Are you stressed to the point of insomnia and lack of concentration, and do you find yourself preoccupied with negative thoughts? Therapy can help. Studies show that talk therapy (with a qualified and seasoned professional) can alleviate a number of emotional and even physical problems, including chronic pain. ABOUT MY THERAPY PRACTICE: Understandably, most people who seek Counseling Therapy are a bit nervous (or a LOT nervous) about what they're getting into, with someone they don't even know as a therapist. It helps if someone else you trust has referred you, but some people find my practice in the phone book or online. I've worked hard on this website to clarify the many options for therapy, thereby letting you know something of how I work with people in therapy. Please scroll around this page for more information and resources, but here are a few points about myself: I meet each person, or couple, as they are right now. I do not believe it is my job to judge anyone. All are welcome. HOWEVER, there are a few expectations/standards for behavior in the office. Anyone who arrives for an appointment under the influence of drugs or alcohol will be immediately dismissed, with no discussion. I have years and years of experience and can usually detect what is "going on" with the issue/s quickly and so therapy often moves forward quickly. I try hard to make my office safe, comfortable, confidential, and inviting. I have a huge range of therapy interventions and I pull them together after getting to know YOU. I am a certified Hypnotherapist, use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as part of almost every intervention, am trained and experienced in EMDR for trauma resolution, have years of experience with bereavement, am a skilled couples therapist, etc. More than anything, I am convinced that every person has within him/herself the ability to be naturally well and happy - far beyond what most people imagine for themselves until they begin a full immersion in therapy.

Please remember to come back and fill out the E-MAIL INTAKE FORM with all of this information. *Do you accept credit card payments?* No at this time, Anne Milligan only accepts payment by cash or check. *I've never been to therapy before. How does therapy usually work? What do I do and what do you do?* This is a very common question for people new to therapy. Your first session is most often an assessment session. That is the time when the therapist finds out about you and helps you formulate what the problem is and what your goals are. Through the assessment and talking to you about your life, the therapist can give you a perspective that you might have missed, having lived with yourself 24/7 all this time! It is also often a venting time for the client because he/she has usually been holding things inside for a while and needs to release emotions. Couples have a chance to tell their story in the presence of someone objective. Some preliminary goals are set in the first sessions and the therapist often sends the client/s off with something to do right away to help further his/her goals. A next session is set up if necessary. If the therapist needs to refer the client onto another specialist, the proper consent paperwork is signed and a referral is made.

I am finding that I am more peaceful and serene, I am not nearly as prone to get upset, and my mood is improved. My doctor tells me that my blood pressure has dropped to a normal level for the first time in years". NOTE FROM ANNE MILLIGAN: The above client's name has been removed for confidentiality reasons. She came to my office originally with extreme anxiety, mood swings, constant anger at her husband, and rapid, anxious speech patterns. I was amazed at the changes in her appearance and presentation when I saw her again in one month and I continue to see those changes in others who commit themselve to daily usage of the meditations. Anne Milligan created and released this CD entitled "Into the Light" in 2007. The feedback/results from daily users of this CD has been phenomenal. The inner work involved in this CD involves some of the following: Learning how to relax and focus more deeply in mind and body Activating the "Power of Intention" toward the actualization of your best self The power of forgiveness and gratitude The power of healing light imagery The power of pure, unconditional love The power of accessing positive memories from the past The ability of mind-body to heal itself The power of music to open the heart & heal the mind and body For more information, and to order the healing meditations, click this link: Mindfulness Meditations \| Contact Us \| A Family-Centered Approach in Coping With Loss \| Inner Healing and the Soul \| COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT HYPNOTHERAPY \| SPIRITUALITY IN THERAPY \| Stress Management \| Guided Imagery For Pain Management \| Why Nobody Should be Afraid of Counseling Therapy \| Hospice Ritual \| WE ARE ALL ADDICTED TO SOMETHING \| Bereavement and Hospice Materials \| CARE FOR HOSPICE CAREGIVERS \| Emotional Honesty \| After the Affair: \| Interesting Articles, Links, and Resources \| Signs of a Healthy Life \| Required Insurance Information \| HOW TO GET BETTER \| Post Traumatic Stress Disorder P.T.S.D. \| LIGHT \| Self Esteem and Spirituality \| WHY AM I NOT HAPPY?
