Getting to know Chad Petties

Hi there, I'm Chad! I am a highly accomplished Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 28 years of experience managing challenging behaviors and helping individuals with significant social/emotional skill deficits and mental health needs. I earned my Master's in Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Phoenix. I focus on individual, group, couples, and family therapy using Cognitive Behavioral, Solution Focused, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. My approach I work with individuals, couples, families, and groups, tailoring therapy to each client's unique needs through evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral, Solution Focused, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. My focus I support individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, change-of-life issues, and the overall challenges life presents. My communication style My tone is typically client-centered with a touch of reality therapy and coaching to encourage growth and accountability. My journey to mental healthcare I began working with youth about 28 years ago. Motivated to deepen my skills, I returned to school to earn my Master's degree. I also supervise interns and associates, enjoying the opportunity to guide others as I was once guided. Helping clients overcome life's challenges is deeply rewarding to me. My goals for you I use the SMART goal technique and strive to partner with clients for smooth development and effective treatment. My first session with you My first sessions are laid-back, designed as get-to-know-each-other meetings. Over time, sessions evolve with a focus on growth and preparing clients to ?fish for themselves? as we work toward termination.
