Utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy in a warm, engaging interactive style, my intent is to help each person experience effective communication and personal growth in a safe, non-judgmental environment.
First session
Informed consent is necessary to an awareness of the therapeutic process and is the first item in a first session. This allows for an opportunity to get perspective about my practice and to ask questions. Understanding that a first session is the client's opportunity to interview the therapist and determine if the therapeutic alliance is a good fit, the client's current stressors and goals for therapy are the agenda.
Strengths
Clients leave sessions feeling affirmed and confident they have or will acquire the tools needed to accomplish their therapeutic objectives. My ambition is best summed up in my motto: "a helping hand when life doesn't make sense."
Ideal clients
I work with adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families. I have degrees in Psychology from Texas and Virginia.
