What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session will cover brief introductions. This will be followed by specific challenges and struggles you are facing. In doing this, I will be able to get to know you and begin creating a moldable plan to work on together during follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have been working with individuals form various backgrounds and facing diverse mental health issues for over 20 years in various capacities from inpatient to outpatient treatment. During this time I have learned that while every person is different with individual challenges, these are not an impossible to meet to help the person achieve their personal goals. This means that by getting to know the individual and their circumstance you can develop a Care Plan that is unique to that human being.
