My Approach to Therapy

I take a person-centered approach to treating clients who feel like their previous counselor was not listening to them or new clients who just need someone to talk to. I engage clients in open and candid conversations about their concerns. When I first see a new client, I take the time to listen to their whole story of why they are seeking my services. I engage the client by reflectively listening to their concerns, and through reflective listening, they are able to answer the questions they have on their own. I will also utilize other techniques (like CBT or mindfulness exercises) if I feel it is necessary.

Had a Negative Therapy Experience?

Sometimes clients go to therapy and it was a bad experience and it turns them away from future treatment. The reason for the bad experience is most likely the therapist was a bad fit. There are many different types of therapists and many different types of therapy offered. Taking time to research potential therapists could really benefit clients when deciding if therapy is right for them.
