As your therapist: I will not try to fix you, give you advice, tell you what to do, pretend I know you more than you know yourself, assume what is best for you, have all the answers, or make the bad stuff go away. Instead, as your therapist I will: Remind you that you are not broken, give you room to access your own wisdom, support you in figuring out what to do, recognize that you are your own life expert, remember that I do not know what is best for you, honor that I do not know it all, and collaborate with you on how to make the hard stuff easier to sit with.
The decided upon approach utilized in therapy is determined by the consumer and their particular needs, which could include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused (CBT), Client Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, while focusing on a strengths-based perspective with assisting the person to achieve their goals.
Holding the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist to the highest regard, believing it to be a trust-filled relationship is the foundation of healing and change.
