Stephen Simoson
Working together once you realize your inner power, both therapist and client collaborate on cultivating that inner strength. For example, I've worked with individuals dealing with self-harm, formerly referred to as cutters/self-mutilation.
I am a Client-Centered Therapist using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Brief-Solution-Focused therapy and both can be modified depending on your individual needs.
Also, I worked with SI/HI, depression, anxiety, people with AH/VH/TH and paranoia, addictions, relationship issues, trauma/abuse, grief, eating disorders, sleep disorders, self-esteem, Bipolar, coping with life changes, attachment issues, body image, developing healthy boundaries. Counseling is a collaborative process, "Working together for a better tomorrow."
First session
For most people beginning counseling isa challenging. Therapy is a process there are no quick fixes. Therapy is hard work for the client. I do give homework that is evidence based, which can help anyone. Ther
Strengths
Areas of my strengths are grief, suicide, depression, self-esteem, teaching, and utilizing clinically proven techniques to deal with emotional and life experiences. I encourage the client to realize the inner strength and wisdom they already have, and may not realize they have.
Ideal clients
There is no true ideal client other than those who are willing to step out in faith and are willing to do the hard work to heal your inner emotional wounds. I look forward to working with you in the healing process. I do give homework that is what is called evidenced based techniques that have been proven to work.
