I am trained and specialize in the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT); and, Brief Solution-Focused Intervention (BSF-i) which both are research-based, empirically validated, and evidence-based practicing skill-sets to provide care by: -Identifying root/core causes related to client's presenting concerns which may manifest as trauma, disconnection, dissociation, self-doubt, loss of hope, and others that can lead to in-crisis/life-threatening episodes, stress, anxiety, depression, co-dependency uncared for or unmanaged with intent; and, most all DSM-V symptoms of inclusion and diagnoses. This includes identifying and working to understand the client's functional information-processing system which involves problem-solving and decision-making as a result of conditioned behavior (automatic thought-processes, followed by feelings and emotions, and behavioral responses) Other integral parts of the CBT care experience are: -How the role of the environment impacts human existence, engagement, and relationships -Cultural Diversity: Understanding and helping the client to understand their value systems and self-worth and how the negative and positive polarities influence their internal processing system, worldview, and responses to environmental systems -Resolving conflict in relationships with others to build healthy relationships with exploring boundaries, the steps to rules of engagement, and the varying types of relationships -Self-Acceptance: which involves stepping stones of self-esteem, self-confidence, self-understanding leading to self-efficacy, and self-actualization -How the 4 Phases of the Lifespan play dynamic roles in the growth/engagement/decline processes. Essentially, the CBT Model (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) consists of 4 indicators: 1) Environment 2)Thought-perception 3)Feelings/emotional-processing 4)Behavioral responses which often align with the four preferences of personality-type development.
