My name is Garrett and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I am trained in EMDR and have 2 years of experience practicing EMDR with clients. I am also informally trained in DBT and CBT in an inpatient setting working with a variety of mental health issues. I have been practicing for just over 3 years with all populations and all mental health issues, however, it’s important to meet you where you are at and work through what comes up organically.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
A client will be able to take away different perspectives and understanding of their situations and emotions. Additionally, clients will take away valuable skills to cope with issues outside of the therapeutic setting.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I work eclectically with EMDR, DBT, and CBT. This includes flash technique, mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance skills.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a therapist, I consider my strengths to be in educating on skills use to cope with depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma. It is important for someone to have healthy coping skills before core issues are explored that lead to mental health issues.
