Is this the first time you thinking about having therapy? Let's talk about what therapy is and is not. Tell me your expectations. Therapy is in part, talking about how you are feeling whether you have depression, anxiety, or feel overwhelmed by your work, family or relationships or by all three . But that is just the beginning. My name is Judith Copeland, I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I want to help you achieve the positive changes would you like to see in your life. Do you feel you cannot cope, have no self-esteem or don’t even know what will make you happy? Together we will uncover your strengths and you will learn the skills you need to better manage your emotions. I use several treatment methods including, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, Integrative Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to tailor your care to your specific needs. We will explore what is holding you back from achieving your goals and help you heal from past traumas. You will learn how your negative beliefs influence your mood and get in the way of your happiness. Often, we forget that everything is connected. Mind, Body, and Spirit. We need to take care of ourselves physically, psychologically, and spiritually. We often don’t really understand how deeply connected they are to our well-being. I will help you learn that self-care is just as important and or even more important as everything else you do. We have within ourselves the ability to create the life we want and become the person we want to be. I would like to support you on this journey and look forward to meeting you.
In our first session, we will start to get to know each other. We will talk about the challenges and issues that have brought you here. This will let me create a plan specific to your needs that we can work on together in our follow-up sessions.
My experience as a therapist as well as my life experience provides me with insight, empathy, and honesty that are part of an approach to help you realize your inherent worth and strengths that can give you significant and measurable results.
I enjoy working with people of all ages from 18 to 90 years olds. Each has their own special needs, depending on what phase of life they are in. No matter the age, they all want to improve their life, whether to meet new challenges or resolve long-term issues.
I have been using integrative therapy with clients for many years. This method lets me use the best techniques from many different treatment approaches because you cannot use a cookie-cutter approach to help people. We are all different and I will tailor treatment to meet your needs,
