LCSW, 11 years of experience
John Checkett is the first man in history to earn a master's degree in Women's Studies in Florida. How many times has this happened to you: You've made an innocent remark, and the other person distorts it and blames you for the distortion, not for what you actually said. That's called the Strawman Argument and is a common problem of communication -- communication typically being the single biggest problem couples have. Communication is one of the social sciences, and one of John's specialties, along with Women's Studies, Pastoral Psychology and Clinical Social Work. He helps high-functioning men and women free themselves from low self-esteem and negative thinking. As a former officer in the Theosophical Society and a former professional psychic, he firmly believes in the value of Spirituality to Mental Health. He can also help with exercise and nutrition, to help create a holistically healthy situation for you. Whether you're dealing with anxiety or depression, relationship problems, or just feel overwhelmed, Prof Checkett is here to help -- even with time management! You might feel bit nervous about starting therapy, but he's extremely easy to talk to, knowledgeable in a wide variety of subjects, and very media-literate. Most people feel better after a session. In a short time we can get you unstuck and back to living a happy life again.
In your first session you can tell John what prompted you to seek out therapy. Your account of your situation will prompt him to comment on parts and to offer useful information – and probably a bit of humor, where appropriate. He's likely to give you one or more methods to help yourself, and to direct you to a particular book or website. He assigns homework since sessions are most effective that way. Most people feel better at the end of the session than when they started.
Prof Checkett's knowledge base is perhaps his greatest strength; he holds university degrees in four scientific disciples in the social sciences. He's also noted for his talent for talking and listening, which is underscored by his communication degree, and years of experience in counseling. He's particularly good with understanding women, as evinced by his master's in Women's Studies. He can comfortably explore any psychic or spiritual topics and is driven by a sense of responsibility to help. Let him help.
Prof Checkett works best with normally high-functioning people who have found themselves in need of counseling for a new problem, or one that's been bothering them for years, possibly, and now they feel ready to talk about it. John especially appreciates patients who provide feedback, such as, acknowledging being given some useful information, or a report back stating that something from a session proved helpful in their lives.
The mind is the master of emotions. By changing their thoughts, they will change their emotional state as well. Prof. Checkett supplies patients with the cognitive tools which they can employ at any time, to change their emotional state.

His ability to ask the right questions and get right down to the root cause of what's going on is difficult to compare. One of my biggest worries typically with therapy is complaining myself in circles. Typically, I worry that I'll talk so much about my problems and the issues they cause that I will spend the entire session without thinking about solution solutions. This is never a worry with proff. The way and what she communicates in the framework he provides. You won't find in a book.đź’Ż
