My Name is Shirley Bowman , I am the owner of Daily Empowerment Counseling services. I am licensed in Georgia and South Carolina. I have been working in the field of counseling for 15 years. I use many forms of therapy but, I am a strong believer in Cognitive behavior Therapy (CBT) because, if one can change their thoughts their behaviors will follow.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In my first session my clients can expect a warm welcome, learn my style of counseling. I want to build rapport so that they will become a returning customer who is comfortable. We will do an assessment to learn more about the client which gives clarity on why they decided to seek services.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strength as a client is empowering the client to think for themselves and to look at things that has an affect on them and seek out the why in many situations. I encourage my client to talk as I actively listen to find a path for them. Many times, as they talk, they have answered their own question.
