New to Grow
Hello, I'm Robert. My counseling style has always been focused on building a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My motto is that we all have bad situations (death, abuse, divorce, etc.) that can trigger negative thoughts and feelings, and it is important to respond to these situations in a healthy manner or we tend to stay in that negative space longer than we ever intended. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy, DBT, rational-emotive counseling, and client-centered therapy. My goal is to walk with you through your healing journey as you take steps towards accepting but not allowing challenging events to define who you are and take control of your life. I realize that it is not easy to admit that you need help, but that is the beginning of change! If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During the first session we will focus on what brought you to therapy and rapport building to determine the direction that the sessions will take following.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My approach stands out because I take a non-judgmental approach to counseling and I tailor each interaction based on the needs of each client. In my opinion there is always more than one way to effectively treat a client and eventually helping them to self-advocate and manage symptoms in a healthier manner.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal client is one who is willing to be actively involved in the therapeutic processi.e., being opened and truthful, etc., regarldess of age, race or sexual orientation. I am willing to work with anyone who has a goal in mind to effectively address their issues and eventually learn how to manage negative behavior patterns and ways of thinking in a healthier manner.
