Hello I hope all is well but if not I'm definitely here to lend my services to help. My name is Christian I believe the therapeutic alliance with my clients is very important component of the treatment process. I work alongside my clients to help them through life difficulties such as major life changes, anxiety, family trauma, and depression. I love to assess what is helping and not helping my clients, then find unique clinical interventions that make real positive change. Small positive changes can lead to big changes. I'm an eclectic when it comes to using different therapy modalities. I like to use therapeutic games at times to foster a safe place for my clients to talk about the root of the issues at hand.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session the client can expect to go over a brief introduction of myself and for them to get a good idea of how I provide therapy as well them discussing what brings them to therapy. In the first session it is important for me to start building a therapeutic alliance also rapport to help the client feel more comfortable also for them to feel what they want to achieve is important also possible. I like to talk with the client about their interests in hobbies as well which is apart of the joining rapport building process.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a Clinician some of my strengths is my ability to empathize and listen to different clients as they talk about their different life issues in session. I have good critical thinking skills and I bring a wide arrange of experience working with different mental health disorders. I have a lot of experience working with families that have parenting issues, anger management issues, and clients that have issues as it relates to Christianity.
