What should a new client know about working with you?
Hello, I'm Kelli. As a licensed counselor, I bring to you 12 years of experience in the mental health field, focusing chiefly on family issues, mood disorders, and addiction. My professional journey spans across community mental health, private practice, and residential addiction treatment centers.
Primarily, I find myself drawn to aiding clients enhance self-esteem and bolster communication skills, motivated by my belief that we each harbor a deep-seated yearning to enrich self-worth and forge meaningful connections with those around us.
In life, everyone occasionally grapples with emotional struggles, characterized by feelings of depression, anxiety, anger, and more. My goal is to provide an external perspective and practical suggestions that can augment the health of your relationships. Using an array of techniques, including Motivational Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), I assist clients in pinpointing thoughts and behaviors, which may be casting a negative shadow on their everyday lives. I stand by the philosophy that behavior, having been learned, can also be unlearned.
I hold the conviction that our initial step together involves enabling self-discovery by broadening your awareness scopes. I am here to facilitate the process of discerning purpose and meaning in your life, exploring alternate choices, devising actionable plans based on those choices, and providing steady support as you put these plans into action.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
