LMFT, 20 years of experience
I am Jaron Haynes, an African American/Native American licensed therapist with 20 years of clinical experience which includes working with families, adolescents, the chronically mentally ill, those struggling with substance abuse and addiction, PTSD, trauma, anxiety, domestic violence, and personality disorders. As an expert in Marriage & Family Therapy he brings to the team a wealth of knowledge and vast experience to provide the highest quality of care and patience necessary for even those high conflict parenting clients. Jaron is a licensed professional that exhibits compassion and empathy. His passion to help those in need and his desire to give back to the community that helped shape him has led him to work with clients from diverse populations and cultural backgrounds.
I believe that it is the relationship that heals in psychotherapy so I connect with clients from the first session to find out what their goals are in therapy and their interests, stressors and strengths. I explain to them my role as therapist is to assist them on their journey and mirror back to them to help them see themselves clearly. I make sure they are aware of limits of confidential and release for treatment expectations to help them feel safe.
I am confident and well educated to provide therapy to clients from any walk of life. I am open minded and non judgmental. I am able to see strengths in all m y clients and I reflect those strength back. to the clients to help them see themselves clearly. I can do short term focused therapy or provide Rogerian person centered therapy for more prolonged therapy.
I have extensive experience working with forensic populations, clients of color with a variety of diagnosis and issues. I work well with high functioning clients that want to grow and learn. I am trained to work with teens to help them navigate social, cultural, and academic arenas. I work the same with impoverished clients as well as wealthy clients.
1Reality therapy sees behavior as choices, and it teaches us that while we cannot control how we feel, we can control how we think and behave. We choose to behave in certain ways and these choices can help or hamper the ability to satisfy essential needs and reach individual goals
