Everyone is different it will depend on if you have been in therapy before I will either answer your questions and/or ease any concerns looking at what is truly needed to obtain your goals.
Working in this field I would say my greatest strength is listening to what people need and using the the therapeutic approach that works. I am honest and I care. You might be paying for time you do not pay me to care.
There is no ideal client if you are wanting help that is the first start, there is no quick fix and it won't be easy if you are willing to do the work I will be there to help.
Within treatment I use ACT as a way to identify different ways to be mindful, and commit to actions aligning with a person's personal values. that can help with a range of challenges, including but not limited to: managing mental health issues, stress, and/or substance abuse . This method also helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than fight them.
Within the therapeutic room I use this method by identifying and changing core negative thoughts and behaviors that drive their fears. This approach is based on the idea that our thoughts, feelings, and actions are interconnected, and that by changing one, you can positively affect the others.
Within the therapeutic room, I will help identify core skills that include but are not limited to: Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotional Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness. These skills equip individuals to manage intense emotions, cope with stressful situations, build healthier relationships, and improve your overall quality of life.
For individuals assessed and ready for this method, EMDR can be highly effective through reprocessing past trauma. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation, such as side-to-side eye movements, to help the brain reprocess traumatic memories.
Within the therapeutic room psychodynamic therapy helps individuals uncover unconscious thoughts, past experiences, and early relationships shaping your current fears and behaviors.
