My goal is to help you become the best you that you would like to be. I will work with you to help you achieve that goal. We will take the time so you can learn to love you. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience in treating adolescents and adults with diverse backgrounds and ranges of concerns, including those with severe mental and behavioral health issues. I have training in CBT, integrative, and motivational therapy. I'm a humanistic, cognitive behavioral therapist.
I will enable you to move forward by asking you different questions that may challenge the way you think. Hoping to guide you to a different place. I will check in with you and how you are feeling. Are you happier? Making or seeing changes or differences within yourself? I will ask have you reached your goals? My goal is to help you learn more about yourself to help you feel better and help you reach the goal you determined to reach when we started. Each session is guided to help you achieve your goal.
CBT - Cognitive behavioral therapy - it was designed to go deep into a client's thought process in order to better understand how their thoughts affect their behavior. The purpose of this form of therapy is to change the thought process therefore changing the negative behavior. Often this approach may incorporate techniques such as role playing and journaling in order to help the client get some insight into their thoughts. ACT: Acceptance & Commitment Therapy - Accept what is out of our personal control, commit to actions that improves your life. ACT achieves this by supporting clients to develop skills to deal with painful thoughts and feelings, in such a way that they will have much less impact and influence. These are known as mindfulness skills.
My biggest strengths as a therapist I'm non-judgmental, open, and a strong communicator who will speak with clear and direct. I'm an excellent listener who will set an agenda that will meet your goal. I have an approach that makes you feel like you are talking to your friend.
