"There is no health without mental health", is a statement I recently read. It is perfect in it's simplicity. Reaching out for help can be difficult. In my 16 years as a mental health therapist, in several states and with varied ethnicities, it has been my goal and hope to help each client learn to overcome their struggles and maintain good mental health in their daily lives.
Technically speaking I utilize the CBT approach to therapy. This approach allows me to meet the client where they are and help them make the changes they seek to utilize. Depression? Anxiety? Low Self Worth? Grief? Relationships?These and many other struggles can be addressed in the welcoming, accepting and encouraging atmosphere I offer as a therapist.
Your first session will give you the opportunity to share your story and your hopes from therapy. This is done with unconditional positive regard to you as an important person with a story to share. Together we will develop and work on your goals. Homework, when appropriate, may be part of your plan. An important aspect in your growth will be working on your therapeutic goals both in and outside of sessions.
