Over my years doing therapy, I have found some central concepts to be really helpful for my clients to understand in our work together. I call them the "spiels" that I give, distilled from brilliant people's work that I have percolated in over my years in the mental health field. I have written some of these themes out, both for my clients to reference, and for anyone else out there that could benefit from these concepts.
I enjoy getting to be Christian counselor, and I have spent many years working with people from all walks of life. This writing is written without any spiritual reference so that it is accessible to all of the clients that I work with.
