If you seek a counselor that is direct and real, look no further because I am that person.
First session
In our first session, we will start with brief introductions then dive into the specific challenges you are facing. We will determine if we have the 'chemistry' to experience successful counseling. These sessions are for you, the client ,and you will determine how to proceed and what you want to talk about.
Strengths
My biggest strength lies in my many years of experience dealing with an enormous amount different experiences. I use a number of 'tools' and I think out-of-the-box. I am quirky direct and different. If ordinary is what you seek, I am not that person.
Ideal clients
Those clients with depression, anxiety, and trauma are the population I am best suited to support. I also have provided counseling to the LGBTQ community. The most successful clients are those who are willing to to look at themselves honestly. One specific goal is that my clients feel better when they leave than when we started. Counseling can be a big decision. Those who prioritize their treatment get the best results.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Once clients become familiar with their 'thinking errors or cognitive distortions' they can learn to reframe negative thoughts to positive ones.
Reality Therapy
We all make choices. Reality therapy allows us to accept our choices in a very non-judgmental way and put our choices in a context we can understand.
