Hello, my name is John Abad, LCPC, and I have worked for over six years as a therapist. I work with ages 5+, adolescents, and adults. My focus areas are Anxiety, Coping Skills, Emotional Disturbance, Parenting, and Stress. I use a mix of Clinical Supervision and Licensed, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Transpersonal, and Schema Therapy. I believe in utilizing my preference in guided modalities and focusing on developing talents and interests.
I'm usually directive but will be open to your requests regarding where to take the session. I am confident in my knowledge, which shows in sessions when I try to persuade you of something I find evidence-based. At the same time, I allow free debate and agenda setting and encourage patient/client honesty. I enable critical thinking and free thought.
I must gather primary general mental health data and create a treatment plan. Thus, I would ask about mental health history, social support network, expectations about therapy, confidentiality, and many more. If I sound like a good match for you, I encourage you to reach out and get started today!
