Therapist Intern
I am a clinician at our Attleboro clinic who provides therapy services!
I am mostly looking to treat anxiety and mood disorders, but I am not particularly picky. I would think my ideal client would have issues related to symptoms that are inhibiting their functioning and quality of life. Their goal would be to manage these symptoms, and I would be able to help them determine strategies to achieve this goal that work best for my client.
I would be able to provide them empathy and active listening skills to build rapport and ensure that I understand exactly what their problems are. I would like to work collaboratively with them to determine strategies that would work best for them to deal with their symptoms. We would determine homework assignments and activities to perform inside and outside of sessions to help accomplish their goals.
I believe that all clients are unique with what they are experiencing, and treatment should be tailored to their specific symptoms. I will try to empathetically understand the struggles and listen without making assumptions. I will try to keep the client informed about the direction of treatment to ensure that we are on the same page. If not, I would like to foster an environment where the client feels comfortable in voicing their opinion.
