LP, 6 years of experience
Welcome! My name is Ryley McCallum, I'm a licensed clinical psychologist. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can freely express your thoughts, emotions, and concerns. By truly listening to your experiences and understanding your perspective, I strive to develop a deep connection together where we can foster a strong therapeutic alliance and work towards your individual goals.
Our first session together will be an intake session where I get to know you, your history, your struggles and strengths, and most importantly your goals for therapy.
I strive to match the treatment methods that I use to what fits each individual client, their struggles, and their goals. I always work from a client-centered approach and incorporate other modalities as appropriate, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Exposure and Response Prevention, and mindfulness.
I believe my strengths include creating a safe and nonjudgemental space that allows you to be comfortable and confident in truly expressing yourself. Initially creating a strong and genuine therapeutic relationship allows for the opportunity for challenging and meaningful therapeutic work and growing through facing discomfort.
I primarily work with clients struggling with Anxiety, OCD, and Phobias. I also frequently work with clients with depression, ADHD, and those struggling with general life stressors and transitions.
