Hello all, My name is Rotesa Baker and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan. Since receiving my master's degree in counseling in 1998 from Eastern Michigan University, I have worked with individuals in a human service capacity in educational and community settings as it relates to developing therapeutic relationships and guiding individuals in the field of human services by becoming their optimal selves.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions and thereafter, I would like to hear more about your reasons for initiating therapy. I would also like to address expectations throughout the process, including my role as a therapist and finally identify specific challenges that you are facing. This collaborative approach will be instrumental in creating a plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with diverse populations and age groups for the past 27 years, in a myriad of settings, I have developed a clinical repertoire that will be instrumental in recognizing your individual and unique needs. By incorporating a holistic approach and evidence-based interventions, the ultimate goal is to create a "better you."
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I enjoy working with adults who are experiencing life transitions as well as those who may be experiencing physical and mental health complexities. I recognize that life can present us with many challenges and uncertainties, and we may struggle in identifying the next steps. I am passionate about assisting those who are willing to embark on their journey toward an optimal well-being.
