Keeping it Simple!

Greetings, potential BetterHelp client!

I work primarily with clients who want to actively eliminate and complete certain areas of their life, and to use that released energy to create new directions.

As you see above, my motto for everything is to “Keep It Simple.” And that includes every aspect of our lives. My therapeutic approach is to 1.) assess your current life situation, and then to 2.) teach some basic life-lessons which, if practiced, will lead to your own development of a powerful set of “Self-Therapy” skills. Self-therapy – that should be the goal of every counselor and client.
You were/are/will be the creator of everything you are currently experiencing. Therefore, teaching you some skills to address that personal responsibility is the focus of any sessions we would have.

Here is an idea of how that program works:
Step One: listen to the client’s challenging stories
Step Two: teach a simple exercise (a self-therapy tool) to address those challenges
Step Three: practice, and then repeat the first two steps! Also, a touch of humor and artistic creativity can be very helpful in this process.

Before we work together on a regular basis, decide if/when you are prepared for a series of teaching sessions based on learning "Self-Therapy skills" before you click on my name as a BH counselor. My program has weekly lessons to read and study, freely available on my own pages. Those topics, and that outline, will determine how we proceed from week to week. If you would like to look over this program ahead of time, to help you decide, it is on my own web site here: ptp-express.space.

Practical Note: I prefer the "video session" format, because the "chat" and "phone" formats limit the quality of our exchanges. Also, around the clock "asynchronous messaging/journaling" is encouraged.

My session days are Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, usually starting at Noon.
Here is a copy of my usual weekly session schedule, for your future reference.
Usual weekly session schedule (all times are US Central Time)
Wednesday: 12 noon, 1:30 pm, 3 pm, 4:30 pm, 6 pm and 7:00 pm
Thursday: 12 noon, 1:30 pm, 3 pm, 4:30 pm, 6 pm, and 7:00 pm
Friday: 12 noon, 1:30 pm, 3 pm, 4:30 pm, and 6 pm

At any time, feel free to ask me questions about how BetterHelp works, especially with how to get the best tech setup for a good session.

I look forward to traveling the Search for Simplicity path with you!
