Robert Jaskula

I have practiced in a variety of settings - school, hospital, community mental health center. I have learned my craft from my experience. I have worked with clients across age ranges, from adolescents to seniors. I particularly enjoy working with young adults working to find their place in society. I want to know my clients have or will develop a sense of personal power.

As we start, I would like to know what a client expects from therapy. Then I would like the client's help in creating a plan they find acceptable. With the client I will seek goals for the plan they accept as reachable.

I like to create an environment in which the client can become curious and open to adjustments in point of view. I ask the client to recognize their strengths and trust their instincts. I would hope the client begins to feel they have power with some assistance to be active agents of change.
