Hello, my Friend! I wanted to share a few tidbits about me since we will be focused on you and your documents. :) I graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and earned a Master's in Social Work. In my life, education has played a strong role. Education has opened doors to experiences and provided lessons only found in the field! I will always be learning! Well ... See you at our first session.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
The first session you can expect: Lots of talking about you Lots of talking about your concerns Discussion on possible resolutions and making a plan that will make you more successful Discussion about possibilities in treatment modalities ex /Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
The treatment methods and tools I utilize
I am an advocate of Cognitive Behavioral theory. I also use visuals and physical prompts to help one understand their perspective and others.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
If I were stop and think what my strengths are when helping others: Good listener Straight forward without being punitive or judgmental Encourage the use of critical thinking and coping for success Patient while the client is seeing what works for them Awesome with metaphors
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I have had experience with many different groups and individuals: Families, divorce, co-parenting, self- injury, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality, and others. I have completed 20 years addressing Mental Health and Behavioral Treatment needs, giving me much experience to apply what I was taught. Just know when there is a question, and I do not have an answer. I will work very hard to obtain an answer to your inquiry! Thank you for taking a peek! I hope to hear from you soon.
