Howdy!
My name is "Pete" Peters.
I have 35 years of experience in the field of behavioral health and have been counseling for 30 of those years.
I love working with clientele who see the possibility of change and are willing to take risks to see that change manifest.
If it were easy, anybody could it...
I am interested in helping those who are willing to make the right sacrifices to make positive change happen.
"...be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind..."
Neuroplasticity, Rewiring Your Brain, however one choses to label it, the idea of getting rid of old, irrational, nonhelpful, maladaptive patterns of thinking is the premise behind the version of CBT used in my practice. Out with the old, and in with the new - new thoughts, new behaviors, new emotions. We all owe it to ourselves to at least give it a try!
As rapport is essential to the therapeutic relationship, during the first session, I generally attempt to introduce myself in such a way that clientele get a good idea of who I claim to be. Holding true to this claim throughout subsequent treatment helps to forge a quid pro quo, therapeutic relationship consisting of authenticity and genuineness. The first session is the commencement of learning about ourselves, together. Beyond that, clients can expect to walk away from sessions knowing more about themselves and how to best manage their circumstances to achieve their desired results.
"And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free."
