“My approach to helping others is rooted in humility and the practice of radical acceptance.” I am just like you; I am a human ,I have been thru some challenges, I love tv and movies, music, and books. My approach to helping others is rooted in humility and the practice of radical acceptance. I pride myself on meeting the client where the client is and creating a blueprint for progress from there. My most valuable skills as a psychologist are my abilities to build rapport, make the client comfortable, and create a comfortable space to work on issues. One of my strongest character traits is empathy. This allows me to see the world through the client's eyes and imagine what it would feel like to walk in their shoes.I have a difficult time managing my excitement about the growth of telehealth. It is a shame it took a global pandemic to truly launch it into the mainstream. Telehealth allows individuals to receive therapy that previously might not have been accessible. I am excited to be able to work with clients throughout the state of Indiana and Kentucky now that telehealth is the norm. I have a particular strength in working with anger, depression, and anxiety. I have helped many individuals overcome these challenges in the past. I also have a particular niche working with diverse community cultures on these issues and helping them work through them. The treatment methods and tools I utilize are the following; Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT)- Proven effective for treating depression, anxiety, and anger. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)- For problems we face that have no easy solution. Coaching and Motivational Interviewing- For changes you desire that aren't rooted in challenges that are clinical in nature. “I pride myself on meeting the client where the client is and creating a blueprint for progress from there
