New to Grow
I am a social worker who has done therapy for 15 years. I work mainly with anxious and depressed adult clients, adult clients with ADHD, and adult clients with addiction including porn issues. I often work with couples having relationship issues or individuals in a relationship who want to discuss their relationship. Often relationships with other people and job stress comes up. Past trauma and its effects also frequently comes up.
At the first session we will complete any required forms and I will gather background information from you. We will discuss what you want to get out of therapy and your mental health history.
My length of experience and outside of school self education helps me help my clients.
I tend to have a caseload of individuals and couples in the age 20-45 probably due to the stress level most people have in that period of their lives. I also regularly see a lot of people and couples over 45 dealing with various stress issues like change of life and relationship issues. I see some clients with change of life issues in their 20s.
I identify as

Often in couples counseling use John Gottman's book "The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work" as the starting point for treatment
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
This method deals with negative thinking. We'll use CBT to examine how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Do you tend to make mountains out of molehills? We'll then use that knowledge to change your thinking patterns, helping you lead a more relaxed, less stressful life.
