Percy W Ford, MC, LPC-MHSP
My approach
I primarily use CBT and Psychodynamic theory when working with clients. I believe in being very direct and blunt with clients as this will help them grow. I don't beat around the bush or allow clients to get away with self deception and confront their irrational and dysfunctional belief systems.
My focus
I am comfortable treating a variety of symptoms and conditions.
My communication style
I believe in creating a safe space for clients to express themselves however they need to. This encourages growth and trust in the therapeutic alliance.
My goals for you
I encourage clients to set the goals they want to reach. This is their process. Wherever they want to go, I will help them get there. I tell my clients I am the car. They are the driver. We go to the destination they determine.
My first session with you
The first session with me is information gathering so I will be asking alot of questions and they will be doing most of the talking.
