I want to meet a client where they are at, therefore where one wants to start. I am genuine and authentic and want to assist someone to get the help and resources they may need to be and feel better as a person overall. I enjoy teaching skills and am constantly learning new skills and techniques to be a better therapist. I also may push at times in order to assist one to explore further what it is they are experiencing.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I typically ask many questions about different life areas. I explore where one is at in order to grasp a well-rounded understanding and be able to direct the best treatment modality and style.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am easy to talk to, as I am nonjudgmental, I use humor at times to diffuse situations and prefer to build on what one is doing well and continue to move in that direction. I meet clients where they are at.
