Renowned psychologist Carl Rogers once stated that the process of a ‘good life’ involves stretching, growing, and becoming more and more of one's potential. He argued that the individual who chooses growth as their compass in life is truly an inwardly free individual (Rogers, 1961). Inspired by Rogers’ humanistic and timeless outlook, I focus my work with clients on expanding their process of growth into an engaging endeavor rather than a strenuous one. I believe that every individual has tremendous inner resources that need support in coming to light. My goal is to make every client feel empowered to create the best life for themselves individually and in their relationships.
In our first session we will explore your challenges, goals, discuss therapeutic orientations we will be using, your rights regrading therapy and the policies, procedures involved in our process and learn about your comfort and any preferences/limitations pertaining to the therapeutic process.
I am interested in fully understanding my clients' experience and good listening may be one of my greatest strengths. Further, I am very committed to getting to the core of the client's problem and revolving from the source with more lasting effects.
I use CBT, Solution Oriented and neuroscience informed interventions to support my clients. Over time, I noticed this to be a great blend to utilize. Further, I continuously research new orientations and add new clinical interventions based on Cl's cultural, spiritual and other preferences or considerations to meet the clients where they are at.
This orientation works great for those clients who are ready and committed to doing the work. Defining goals and targets, desired outcomes and rating challenges allows for a very tangible orientation that clients appreciate.
