Life presents opportunities and challenges. When we are faced with challenges, it is okay to seek support. At Don-Positive Change Therapy, I help you to identify the challenges, and plan and implement the solutions that allow you to function in the world in a way that is right for you. I believe this is your journey, and am honored to be able to help you achieve the balance in life you deserve. If you are looking for a positive change in your life, then you have come to the right place. We all have times when we experience symptoms, be it anxiety, depression, trauma, or things that just don't feel right. I am trained and experienced in a variety of therapeutic modalities supporting individuals, couples, adolescents, parenting, and family systems. With a focus on language, communication, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and emotions, you will be on a path toward balance and positivity. Whether you are experiencing challenges with work or life, you can learn how to manage the things you can control, you!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Intake/Initial sessions are 1 hour, and follow-up sessions are 45 minutes. I work with whatever you bring into the session. I will help you identify concerns, create a treatment plan with goals, and provide you with the necessary tools to make a positive change in your life. I believe this is your journey, and honor, respect and support your beliefs and values. You will find a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment where you will be provided psychoeducation and challenged in a way that is right for you. You will take away skills and strategies that will help you to exist in the world in a way that is right for you. This process will allow you to graduate from therapy, and experience a meaningful life, relationships, and the kind of journey you deserve.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
My approach is based on what you bring into the session. I am trained in a variety of clinical modalities, including evidence-based: Here are some examples... Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) I will support you in utilizing what is most appropriate for you! My theoretical training includes Humanistic, Existential, Experiential, Gestalt, Psychodynamic, Humanistic/Client-Centered, Holistic/Integrative, Systemic, Behavioral, Narrative, and Mindfulness.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I believe in creating an environment of complete safety and trust. I establish rapport with you, and meet you where you are at. I find that my clients improve with a better understanding of who they are, how to communicate, and feel better about themselves and others. I find managing perspective, and shifting towards solutions allows for a positive change in our lives and I invite you to start or continue your journey with me.
