LPC, 24 years of experience
Hello! My name is Agnes and I've been a mental health counselor for over 20 years! Do you ever find yourself struggling just to get through the day? Do you feel overwhelmed and stressed out over minor issues and events? Do you wake up in the morning dreading the day before you? Have you been feeling depressed, anxious and angry.....lashing out at others which only compounds these bad feelings? Have you had thoughts of just wanting to "run away" or "give up"? Emotions can be wonderful; but, they can also get out of hand and lead you to make poor decisions or to act in ways that create more problems. I can help you sort through your feelings, thoughts and behaviors by using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an evidence-based approach that has been proven to work. Working together we can find ways to alleviate that stress, help you get a better and deeper understanding of yourself and find a balance that works to get you back to feeling good in the morning! So, call me if you have been feeling depressed or anxious. Let's sort through these feelings and thoughts that are keeping you stuck!
In the first session, client will be informed about confidentiality and it's limitations. Questions regarding client's history with depression, anxiety and stress will be investigated, strengths will be identified and support will be offered in what can be accomplished.
I am a great listener and identifying problematic areas that could be improved upon.
I enjoy working with young adults, both male and female to help sort out relationship issues and begin a path toward more internal growth.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the interaction among thoughts, feelings and behaviors and how each affects the other. To improve your mood, you have to improve your perception of life, yourself and your environment. You can achieve this in 5 sessions.
