What should people thinking about therapy with you, know about you?

Anyone who is considering me as their therapist should know that I grew up going to therapy and have experienced both effective and ineffective therapists in my life. My priority is making sure the client feels their needs are being met and if not figuring out what I need to do differently for them. I have a wide range of experience and continue to educate myself on different skills.

Today's world is too often scary and overwhelming. For many of us, learning to function & adapt in life as a child, teen or young adult is confusing & difficult. These challenges lead to feeling lonely, frustrated or hopeless. Through our work together, you will become confident in yourself, begin to not just 'get by', but thrive. You will begin to experience a life where being you is more than good enough. Unavoidable challenges become opportunities & you gain control of the most important area, yourself. Working together, you will become equipped to navigate day to day life & the unexpected, emerging stronger, smarter & happier. I am passionate about helping children, teens & young adults understand their emotions through play therapy & cognitive behavior therapy, within a family systems approach. I have valuable experience helping children and families deal with grief, behavioral issues, stress, depression, trauma, & school-related issues. Working with Wellspring Therapeutic Partners means I regularly consult with our team of prescribers and psychologists who specialize in a variety of areas. I can provide seamless referrals for medication management, psychological testing, therapy for loved ones or other household members, groups & EMDR services as needed and appropriate.

I strongly believe that YOU have all the knowledge, experience, strength, and love inside of you to make the changes you need to in your life. I can be a collaborator and a teammate and offer my expertise, but ultimately YOU are the expert in your life, your experiences, and your struggles.

I have over 20 years experience working in psychology, counseling, and education.  My specialty would be my work with adolescents as I’ve been a high school counselor for the last 17 years.  I am also a father of two children, so I personally know the challenges of parenting. I promise to be knind, caring, and nonjudgmental. A genuine connection with my clients is my top priority. 

Are you feeling stressed, anxious, or depressed? As a parent, are you struggling with your teen? Family issues? Let me help. I offer online therapy for teens, parents, and families. As a private practitioner & school counselor, I can help you sort through individual, adolescent, and family difficulties. For over 20 years, I have helped teens, adults, and families adjust to difficult situations. Research has proven that the most important factor in therapy is the therapeutic relationship. My main goal is to create a caring bond that will help you find solutions. You might feel like you’re stuck and nowhere to turn. Sometimes we feel like change is impossible, but I assure you that it is. I am hear to listen. (Replies are typically within 24-48hrs)

I think it’s so important to be ourselves in session. I build a safe space built on trust for you to be yourself, and also find it important for me to be genuine. To me, this looks like using humor when appropriate, cussing if clients are comfortable, and always leading with compassion. If you are looking for a therapist who breaks the therapist stereotype of being cold and neutral and only saying “but how does that make you feel” then schedule your free consultation today! 

I help individuals and couples improve relationships in their life by processing how past dynamics/experiences impact their present selves. Schedule a free consultation today!

My style combines being compassionate and encouraging you to work through stuck areas to move you closer to the life you want. One of my main focuses is on making sure you feel heard and understood to figure out how to best tackle your concerns. I believe you're the expert in your life and expect you to take an active role in the process.

I help clients feel confident and be able to kickass in all areas of your life. You want to be able to quiet that inner critic, no longer second-guess yourself, and have moments where you feel like you're all that and a bag of chips. If that sounds like you, then I'd encourage you to reach out so we can get you there. Together, we will explore what thoughts, feelings, & behaviors are keeping you feeling unsure and overwhelmed. We will change your relationship with these experiences so you can live a brave life.

I like to get to know my clients and what they are interested in and what motivates them. I then take that information to boost the skills we learn in therapy to improve your circumstances. I love to be creative so encouraging using music, writing, storytelling, art, building things and incorporating that into therapy is exciting!

 Your life is ever changing and switching gears is not always easy. Your new reality require adjustments and sometimes we struggle with making them. Many times, they happen without notice and well before you are ready. You can feel lost, powerless, or stuck. It might feel like you are barely treading water. It takes courage to change! Changing is scary and responsibility feels overwhelming, but it does not have to be. Many times, you could work through those struggles if you just had someone to talk them out with. Someone who would guide you and help you to adjust as you forge your new path. Often, you get in your own way and become your biggest obstacle. Utilizing CBT, we will identify the thoughts and behaviors that are obstacles to your success, challenge their validity, and change those thoughts and behaviors to help you achieve your goals. Together, we will reduce the anxiety, increase your confidence, process losses, and move forward in peace. Hey!

I'm a pretty laid-back individual and therapist, but I still have expectations for both myself and you as the client. I constantly work outside of office hours to learn more about mental illness and treatment. While you may make progress in your sessions, you will only sustain this growth by applying what you learn in session to your day-to-day life. When I have clients who do not seem to be applying their newly learned skills outside of therapy, I do address this issue. I do not call them out. Rather, I help the client identify barriers. Then we problem-solve to overcome the barriers. After all, we are usually talking about developing new habits which is why people often come to therapy in the first place. Clients may not be practicing skills due to details often overlooked by the therapist in the first place. So as I've already explained, we address the issue, but do not call out the client. It can still be uncomfortable to do so, but the process can still be therapeutic, improve the client-therapist relationship, and improve overall outcomes for the client.

I am the owner and founder of Rowe Counseling Services and have been in mental health treatment for over 8 years. I am licensed in both Mississippi and Louisiana. I have experience working with all age groups. I apply various therapeutic approaches in my work including cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy. I always take a client-centered approach and allow you to take the lead in your treatment while I simply act as your guide. Just as many other therapists do, I treat disorders such as depression and anxiety. My specialties however are trauma, dementia, and substance abuse (especially opioid abuse and the use of treatments such as Suboxone and other forms of buprenorphine). I also utilize somatic psychotherapy and sensorimotor psychotherapy for the treatment of trauma and attachment issues. Traditionally, many forms of therapy focus on the influence the mind has on the body. However, trauma is a body response. Somatic and sensorimotor psychotherapy addresses the body to improve the mind. Please, feel free to reach out for a brief consultation to learn more about more about my approaches, my services, and my fees. While I am self-pay only, I do assist with reimbursement for out-of-network benefits. I can quickly check for eligibility.

They should know I'm an open book. I believe in the human experience we can learn a lot from each other. So I'm happy to share and be transparent if I've had a similar experience as my client.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice for 25 years. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, stress management, relationships and substance abuse. I believe therapy is a collaborative process where the client brings strengths and I can teach tools that will help navigate a healthier future.

My therapy approach is very relational. I believe that our most painful wounding occurs in relationship, yet the most profound healing also occurs in relationship. I desire to offer clients a safe place to bring their authentic self -- the good, the bad, and the ugly -- in order that true healing can occur in the context of relationship.

I believe healing begins when we allow someone else to bear witness to and respond with care to our untold stories. It is only through courageously and honestly exploring our experiences of pain that we are able to break free from old patterns and start on a new path towards wholeness. My desire in the counseling room is to create a safe space for clients to show up with their stories, no matter how scary or painful. Through kind and curious engagement, clients can begin to make sense of their story and its impact not only on the past but also on the present. The importance of engaging my own story began in 2013 when I started on my personal counseling journey. I also spent several years working in the college ministry context and there discovered my passion for walking through life’s ups and downs with young adults. After moving back to my hometown of Orlando, I earned a Master of Arts in Counseling from Reformed Theological Seminary. My counseling approach pulls from relational, narrative, and attachment models.

I don’t own a cardigan, I’ve never gently held a hot cup of tea delicately in two hands, I won’t “mmmmm” at you, or any other soft therapy sounds. I’m going to ask you questions, I’m going to make you laugh, we might even get a tear or two in there as well. I’m going to work hard with you. 

I'm a San Francisco Bay Area based therapist who offers virtual care (telehealth counseling and psychotherapy online) in my back yard and across California. I strive to meet each individual with empathy, humor, and direct communication that addresses the presenting issue head on. Working collaboratively with you I prioritize taking a supportive role while also working towards a clear goal that we develop together.
