Dr. Sywulak is highly trained in the new Mind-Body therapies and specializes in working with families with young children. Clients with trauma are taught the significance of mindfulness and ability of body sensations to give access to the subconscious where negative beliefs about self and repetitive problem behaviors give rise to daily problems in relationships and in the workplace. These very effective therapies are short-term and give clients relief even though they have made little to no progress in traditional talk therapies. In a warm, empathic environment, all treatment is Outcome Oriented, so that positive changes and symptom relief are clearly identifiable.Andrea treats children from pre-school age through adolescence and young adulthood.
