Hello, my name is Asher and I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist that specializes in trauma, addiction and anxiety disorders. I specialize in working with children ages 10-18 years of age. I also specialize in working with adults with an emphasis on memory and aging disorders. I am a brainspotting practitioner which is a trauma/anxiety treatment in the same family of EMDR.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I use the empowerment model, we will discuss your needs and what things brought you to wanting support in your life. We will discuss the cognitive science of thoughts, feelings and behaviors in a psychoanalytic framework. I use a lot of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (emotional regulation interventions), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (situations, thoughts, feelings and the relationship between these concepts), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I enjoy emotional attunement with my clients and actively seeking to understand their experiences. Life can be challenging and when we discuss any type of emotional pain and suffering we want to ensure that we are not stigmatizing the things that come forward in therapy but rather we co-exist with and acknowledge it.
