Blue Mountain Counseling Guiding Principles:

Goal setting. I believe in setting treatment goals in therapy. I think it is important to have a way to measure progress, to have some guidelines and structure to our work together.

Interactive style. I work actively with you throughout, sharing my opinions and perspectives, and working toward positive change.

Transparency. This means that everything about how I work with you – my thoughts and feelings about what you are presenting, my assessment and formulations, my interventions, strategies, approach, and philosophy – will be transparent, and therefore available to you.

Client vs. Patient. I think of you as a client, someone who hired me, who I work collaboratively with; not as a patient, nor as someone who is waiting for me to fix or heal you.

Simple solutions first. This means that in general I will start with the pragmatic, applied solutions first, and go into more complex strategies involving greater levels of intervention as necessary.

Mind/body. I understand, study, and pay attention to the interaction between your physical and emotional behavior and health, and incorporate this knowledge into my work with you.

Client responsibility. I will show you how to be actively involved in your therapy, and to learn how to take responsibility for attaining and sustaining progress and health, to help you get the most out of therapy.

Awareness. This concept is the foundation of the therapy: we will develop a self-awareness that can act to some degree as an observer, to help you increasingly respond rather than react; to help you slow the process down so you can splice in a choice point, and make more conscious decisions about how you want to act.
