Getting to know Clarissa Poole-Parks

Hi there, I'm Clarissa! I am Clarissa Parks, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over a decade of experience in the mental health field. I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Argosy University. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a profound commitment to supporting individuals across all age groups, from children to seniors. My comprehensive background in various therapeutic modalities allows me to tailor my approach to meet each client's unique needs, fostering an environment of trust and growth. With a passion for helping others navigate life's challenges, I have built a reputation for my empathetic and client-centered methodology, empowering individuals to achieve their personal goals and enhance their overall well-being. **My approach** I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which are three valuable methods for people facing mental health challenges. DBT helps those who struggle with strong emotions and relationship issues by teaching mindfulness and practical skills to build emotional strength and improve relationships. Cognitive Therapy helps people spot and change negative thoughts, leading to healthier thinking. ACT encourages people to accept their feelings and thoughts rather than fight them, promoting flexibility in thinking and focusing on taking action based on personal values. These therapies offer practical tools for improving emotional health and understanding oneself better. **My focus** My focus for my clients is to offer empathy, understanding, and support, especially when it is needed the most. I aim to be someone who provides unconditional acceptance and a listening ear. **My communication style** I prioritize empathy, understanding, and support, striving to be a person who offers unconditional acceptance and truly listens. **My journey to mental healthcare** I always share with others that counseling chose me.
