Hi there! My name is Jaron Cotton and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 5 years of experience in the field of mental health. While life is a blessing for us all, it can bring incredible challenges filled with stress that can seem impossible at times. My goal in therapy is understand your goals and work together to help you achieve them. True growth comes from challenging ourselves to process, reflect and adapt in a healthy way. Remember that asking for help and showing vulnerability is actually a sign of strength, never a weakness! I am available through telehealth only at this time, but may be accepting in-person clients in the future. Thank you!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I believe in empathy, compassion and non-judgement during my work with others. Change comes from looking inward, but often we need someone to help us navigate this.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I utilize strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic theory to guide my practice. I also find mindfulness techniques extremely helpful in keeping us grounded and present.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strength is helping others discover their greatest strengths. I believe that we are all so much better than our worst mistakes. We are all striving to be the best version of ourselves
