Robert Rhodes
My name is Robert Rhodes. I have over 25 years experience working with teens and adults who need assistance with depression, anxiety, ADHD, anger-management, relationships, self-esteem, decision making and financial managment needs. I enjoy working with clients to explore option and develop real life solutions to real life challenges.
I bring experience, knowledge, humor and insight to sessions in a meaningful solution focused approach.
My practice focuses on the whole individual and not just "the problem". A strengths based, solution focused approach to each individual insures a positive outcome to all situations.
First session
The first session will include introductions, a description of the problem/concern, a discussion about support systems and routine's the client already have established. Next we'll discuss confidentiality and limits to confidentiality as it pertains to self-harm, suicide and danger. We'll discuss self-care and identify what methods, if any, the clients employs for self-care. Perhaps we'll being the process of developing goals for therapy, both short and long term.
Strengths
I'm a people person who's interested in seeing people succeed in life. I bring experience, knowledge, humor and insight to sessions in a meaningful solution focused approach.
Ideal clients
My ideal client is one who has an issue or concern but is motivated to find solutions. One who, despite life's challenges is interested in collaborating, consulting, coordinating and planning realistics solutions and following through. It's one thing to come to session but to make solid choices when faced with the challenge is where the rubber meets the road. Clients can and do have the capacity to obtain and maintain and optimum level of functioning.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
This treatment will be used to help clients change negative thoughts and processes into positive thoughts and solid out comes. We'll work together to identify triggers to negative thoughts, past experiences and positive solutions.
