Psychotherapist
KS
I applaud your courage to seek out therapy support! Every one of us, at times, may need help and guidance to traverse life's ups and downs. My job is to be that support and guidance in times of need! My approach How I approach doing this is by utilizing a solution-based strengths focus, which takes the strengths you already have and builds on them to teach and guide you to develop more effective life coping skills. I believe we all have abilities that can go unrecognized or overlooked in times when we are struggling. My job is to assist others in creating new pathways to cope through Cognitive therapy. As thoughts drive emotions, emotions drive behaviors and related choices. This can work for people who are dealing with depression, Trauma, Anxiety, self-medicating coping behaviors, etc. I want the people who visit with me to control just how slow or fast they would like to do this. Being comfortable and safe is so important in fostering growth and success during therapy. My focus All of us in life have our own unique history of highs and lows. So I have to be able to hear each specific story and develop a plan to individualize the type of support agreed upon between therapist and client. And is the best fit for each person's identified issues. My communication style My ability to be an effective and helpful therapist occurs when the client and therapist can create a mutually agreed-upon support plan. This will only be fostered if we are able to communicate openly with each other. Therapy is not an event, it's a process developed through sharing ideas, concerns, and needs. My journey to mental healthcare Mentoring from a mother who developed social support systems in a small community for people in need of food, shelter, clothing, as well as after-school activities for at-risk children. My goals for you Assisting others is a collaboration between the therapist and the client.
