What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Counseling requires your active involvement in the process of change. It often requires that you challenge self-defeating thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You will be asked to work both in and out of the counseling sessions. There are no instant, painless, or passive cures, no “magic solutions.” Therapy requires effort and practice; there will be homework/practice assignments and other projects. Problematic behaviors and issues take time to develop and thus take time to address and resolve. Sometimes change can be easy but more often change takes time, effort, and persistence. It is not uncommon that some psychological and behavior patterns have been reinforced for 20 to 30 years and will not change with insight alone. These entrenched thinking and behavior patterns will usually require much focused time and effort. Guidance and professional assistance is designed to support and empower you in seeing new possibilities and find peace for living an emotional and mental healthy and balanced life. You can make better decisions if you have enough information and understanding with regards to how counseling works. Getting motivated with the help of a licensed professional will generate peace, balance and freedom in your life.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked in the field of mental health and wellness for 20+ years, I have developed empathy which allows me the ability to understand your feeling, resulting in enhancing effectiveness in being able to provide you support and building rapport. I also practice active listening which provides an environment where I listen attentively and without judgment, thus opening the door for true understanding of your concerns and needs, fostering a therapeutic relationship built on trust and understanding.
