Counseling Services/Theoretical Approaches
In the question below, write your qualification similar to the example. Feel free to copy the example and update with your information.
Example:
I mainly work with career professionals who face high stress and operate in progress driven environments. I focus on time management, balance, and self-awareness using a mixture of multiple fields of thought. I also work with clients of all backgrounds in an outpatient setting from 6-years-old and up. I work with clients younger than 13 with family involvement using family structure therapy to aid with educational objectives, learning disabilities, and behavioral problems. I work with men and women of all ethnic, cultural, and sexual orientations. I also work with couples dealing with communication and relationship issues, included co-parenting through separation and after divorce. The only clientele I do not work with are clients who have been diagnosed as bipolar.
My theoretical approach to counseling is broad and includes brief solution focused counseling services for specific issues based on problems or issues that are specific to the setting and situation. For deeper issues, I take a psychodynamic perspective for more thorough counseling needed by specific clients. I also use cognitive behavioral techniques and person centered modalities based on client needs, issues, and situation presentation. All progress and pacing of counseling sessions are determined based on the drive and effort of the client to accomplish their stated goals both during and between sessions. I set my pace and approach in therapy based on the desire and comfort of the client.
