About Us
The Center for Stress, Anxiety, and Mood, LLC (CSAM) was founded in 2020 by Dr. Laura Skriner and Dr. Laura Rindlaub. “The Lauras” started as colleagues and friends, and quickly connected over a mutual passion for providing high-quality, engaging, and effective treatment for their clients. They decided to turn their passion into a mission and create a therapy center together. CSAM is the culmination of their vision for a center where youth, adults, and families can come for specialized, effective treatment for stress, anxiety, and mood difficulties.
Here for You
Therapy typically involves once- or twice-weekly sessions, lasting 12-20 weeks. At CSAM, we use therapy techniques that are collaborative, goal-oriented, and skill-focused: we aim to help you get clarity about your difficulties, teach you the skills you will need to manage them, and then practice these skills again and again. We may involve other family members in the process as needed, and may continue consulting with your child’s school and other healthcare providers. Once they feel like they have made substantial progress on their goals, many therapy clients choose to reduce their sessions to twice-a-month or less, or even stop therapy altogether. This is a choice you and your clinician will make together.
Along the way, your CSAM clinician will be consistently monitoring your progress. This will be done with scientifically-supported psychological questionnaires, monitoring sheets, and your and your family’s opinion about your progress. This is to ensure that therapy is indeed having the expected effect on your or your child’s well-being, and is moving you toward your life goals.
