I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina and owner of The Kairos Experience, PLLC. I have been professionally practicing for three years. I am trained and skilled at assisting clients in navigating recovery from childhood trauma and narcissistic abuse, effective parenting using Attachment Theory, couples counseling, and treating individuals with depression, anger issues, and anxiety. I currently have openings for 5-7 couples (self-pay only) and 20 adolescents or adults.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, clients can expect to briefly discuss their psychosocial history and complete an assessment. That is, their mental health history, social history, relationship history, childhood experiences, parental relationships, medical history, and etc. so that together we can determine if I am a good "fit" (i.e., a good therapeutic match) for the client. Then we discuss expectations of psychotherapy and the client's needs on the surface. Clients are welcomed to cry, scream, or vent during the first session. In individual counseling, clients receive immediate assistance with any emotional disturbances they are having on the first day, and after this is addressed we develop a routine schedule for meeting. Clients receiving couples counseling can expect a full assessment without intervention in the first session. I do this so that I can get a full picture of the relationship before any intervention is done. Clients will be asked to review their relationship history, current dynamics of the relationship, and discuss the goals of the relationship. Couples will briefly learn the plan and purpose of the Gottman Method and how this treatment can help them strengthen relationship intimacy.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I see beyond the mask my client's put on their face and I see them for who they are. I allow my clients to scream if they need to, cry if they need to, and exhale. I have a strong foundation in my faith and if given consent will use this to help assist the client in meeting their therapeutic goals. My own trials and tribulations have prepared me to assist clients right where they are without judgment, but in love regardless of their practices, beliefs, or orientation.
