I would be honored to work with you.
l will be honored to work with you. In the Great Psychotherapy Debate (Wampold, 2001), studies demonstrated that if there are two groups of people with similar problems, those who receive counseling will be better off than 79% of those who do not receive counseling. Twenty years of clinical research concluded that the most important factor in successful therapy is the relationship between the client and therapist. I want you to know that I take research seriously and during the counseling process, my goal is for you to feel valued and understood, while working toward your goals. The counseling process is an investment. My goal is to help you move from where you are to where you want to be. My intention is to help you develop new skills and perspectives that you can use to enhance your life. I have many specializations (see Specializations on the left menu bar), but I will customize my approach to you.
Counseling can bring relief, resolution, clarity, freedom, or help you overcome a challenge. My counseling style is encouraging, empowering, nonjudgmental, and thorough. I have advanced training in empirically-proven methods such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Career Counseling, etc. I believe everyone is unique and we will discuss which approach will work best for you. I'm looking forward to being a part of your journey. Let's work together for change. - Paul Krauss MA LPC
