New to Grow
My name is Angela Wilburn, I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist. I have been a clinician for approximately 10 years; I chose this profession so I can help people navigate their way through those difficult periods in their life when they believe no one sees them or no one cares. I want my clients to know they have a voice
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
I am laid back and easy to talk too and have a non-judgemental attitude and approach to counseling. I will make every effort to make my client feel comfortable and create a safe space
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strengths are my ability to empathize, build a rapport with my clients, and my sense of humor.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am there for the men and women who feel lost because of their issues with depression, grief, age related issues, identity, lack of self-esteem and substance use,(just to to name a few potential issues to address); I want to help my clients identify their issues and concerns and work with them to overcome them
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I believe the client is the expert in their life and my job is not to tell the client what to do; my experience has been been when there is a collaborative effort to identify and achieve the client's goals, there is success
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
This method challenges the client's current thinking and provides the opportunity for different interpretations and perceptions
