My name is Yaron. I work as a therapist with goals of helping people to cope with stress, identify their personal goals, and develop healthy relationship skills. I work with individuals and couples to develop skills for coping with anger, anxiety, boundaries, trauma, and stress in healthy ways. I also work with couples and individuals to improve connection with listening and recognizing each person's strengths.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session I will discuss some the logistics about my services. After we are clear on the parameters of treatment, you can then share what has brought you to therapy. I will actively listen to you and work to understand your specific experiences. I will check to see if you feel ready for me to ask you questions, if not that is okay. Towards the end of the meeting I will ask if you would like to schedule another session or would like to take some time to think about it, either choice is fine.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I use a family systems orientation. I look at how people impact one another in their systems and identify patterns occurring. I listen to the person(s) attending the session and give them space to unpack what it is they are feeling and explore the impact the pattern is is having on them. During session we may role play and review new skills to develop coping strategies for stressful moments. I work to provide trauma informed care so I help people develop language to express their feelings along with specific skills to cope with tension, anxiety, and feelings of overwhelm.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I think my biggest strength is as a listener. If you have had a something going for a long time and want some place to process it I believe I can be helpful. Additionally, I have been able to help various people over the years cope with feelings, of tension, anxiety, and overwhelm, through direct skills teaching of various grounding skills and relaxation skills. I am also helpful in collaborating with people in identifying goals through active listening.
