Hello there! Kudos to you for taking this step. I’m a therapist that is devoted to her craft and that knows what it’s like to be broken. Therefore, I am going to be devoted to your healing and as knowledgeable as I can be in doing so. I’m also going to be able to come from a perspective of being able to identify with your hurting and to have unique perspectives on options for promoting your healing process.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first session with me, you can expect to be able to tell your story. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. I will also take time to clarify the therapy process and the typical expectations and guidelines accordingly. You will also get a chance to voice your expectations for the therapy process.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I think that my greatest strength as a therapist is that you can count on me to hear you. I may not always verbalize that fully (due to time constraints), but I will likely hear and understand beyond what you expect me to (per feedback from previous clients). This will show up in my notes and in my planning for future sessions. Another strength of mine is that I expect healing. This allows me to go home and not be stressed because I have strong confidence that my clients are going to experience some form of growth and healing in my sessions. If at any point, I have a client that does not seem to be growing, I will talk with them about it and let them know that my skills do not seem to meet their needs, which can happen sometimes and that is okay; that gives both of us an opportunity to express our advocacy skills.
