Psychotherapy is a process that allows people to overcome their own limitations. We often don't know how to do things differently and we end up getting the same results over and over again. Through talk therapy, we can look at these limitations and work together to make changes in how you think and how you act. The results then change and you will find yourself in new and healthier places in your relationships, and your life.

James Hillman once said, "we've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we overassume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

My approach to psychotherapy is rooted in fostering a therapeutic alliance built on trust, empathy, and active listening. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in depth. Through a client-centered and integrative approach, clients will benefit from tailored interventions and techniques that address their unique needs and goals. I strive to empower clients to gain self-awareness, develop coping strategies, and facilitate personal growth.

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

I am a strong believer in the power of talk therapy. While counseling can be an incredible step towards positive change, it also needs to be accompanied by action outside the counseling session. I will help you navigate through the mental fog, anxiety, depression, addiction, communication issues and more, and will be a collaborator in the exploration of the source of these issues as well as ways of dealing with them and having a better quality of life.

Talk therapy can be helpful with a wide range of issues. I want to work with you not just to get to the root of the issues that make it difficult to cope with life, but also the secret strengths you have that can make things easier. I am strengths focused, and able to help you with quick, short term advancements. I am also available for long term sessions so we can reinforce the things we learn along the way.

The goal of therapy is to stop the behaviors that have had devastating effects on you and those around you and to create more of what you do want in your life; healthy relationships, meaningful time with family and friends, increased productivity at work, feeling comfortable in your own skin, and sustained peace of mind. Please take a moment to find out more about us and the services that we offer. You can create change in your life and overcome difficult, even seemingly overwhelming obstacles. Please call us at 214-390-5800 or email me at cole@bluffviewcounseling.com and take that courageous first step. We look forward to meeting you!

Individual counseling may be oriented towards helping clients achieve their goals for their own personal development. People can grow, develop, and have positive change happen in their core beliefs, well into later stages of life. Younger or even mid-life clients may present with problems regarding sexuality or being at peace with their single sexuality. The Master Designer created us as sexual beings and much of my practice is aimed at helping clients overcome sexual anorexia or the other end of that continuum, sexual addiction and/or pornography addiction (with the added markers of distress being present.) Sex Therapy from a Christian perspective is a large part of my practice.

I create a safe environment for clients to be open and process their emotions. I will walk with you to identify experiences that may impede your sense of self. Many clients I see are working through issues related to family of origin. Once these issues are identified we begin to understand the underlying cause of our behaviors. The pain of childhood wounds, traumas, and old patterns and beliefs can negatively affect all aspects of life. I believe everyone has an inner knowing and the ability to heal. I will assist you to understand the dynamics of your family of origin so you can move forward in your life with courage.

Psychotherapy is a collaborative journey towards healing and self-discovery.

Whether you're seeking short-term solutions or deeper insight, psychotherapy provides a supportive framework for personal growth and transformation. Together, we'll embark on a path towards greater self-awareness.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

I provide psychotherapy, also known as counseling, services to adults and children in individual, couples, families, and groups. I focus on helping you make positive changes from the first appointment so you can progress quickly. Because each person and problem are unique, I do not require a minimum number of sessions; you can work at your own pace. I offer one-time consultations, short-term and long-term therapy, and block-intensives which are longer amounts of time devoted to resolving your issue as quickly as possible.

Individual psychotherapy is comprised of joining a licensed therapist for one-on-one sessions in a safe and open environment. My individual therapy sessions generally last 45 minutes. My highest priority is to help you bring happiness and well-being to your life by restoring your mental balance. I want to help you achieve freedom from old habits, develop healthy coping skills and find new ways to respond to life's challenging situations. Every person is unique so after the first session, an individualized treatment plan is developed and discussed with you to ensure success.

I use two modalities in my practice: restoration therapy and biblical principles. Restoration therapy addresses the root causes of emotional and mental health issues, restoring relationships with God, self, and others. Biblical principles provide guidance and insight for my clients, helping them find hope, healing, and direction through their faith. Together, these two modalities provide a comprehensive approach to promoting personal growth and healing.

Psychotherapy is one of the best and most effective ways to improve an individuals quality of life. More people should utilize this tool, which can provide an objective, unbiased perspective for the challenges that people face in their lives. As a therapist, I will collaborate and support you in finding constructive ways to deal with your concerns and problems.

I provide psychotherapy to adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, career, and relationship stress. Therapy can be effective in helping you identify and process your emotions, untangle your thoughts and worries, heal from past wounds/relationships, and improve your confidence. When you schedule your first initial session with me, we will work together to determine what you want to get out of therapy and create an action plan of how to get there. Each session we will focus on a therapy goal and start exploring how to get closer to that goal through processing, activities, techniques, and research-based interventions.

This private practice is focused on helping clients create a balanced and joyful life. Everyone can discover the way that works best for him or her. It appears that we tend to focus way too much time and energy on "right vs. wrong." This seems to only cause more confusion, indecisiveness, and other insecurities. Seeking outside guidance in times of struggle can be powerful and transformative. One of the goals of this practice is to help clients discover a deeper sense of self and acceptance. Another intention of this practice practice is to help clients build and maintain the necessary tools they already have existing within themselves, and lead clients to new discoveries of living life in a more balanced and enjoyable way.

My psychotherapy approach is dedicated to supporting individuals navigating a spectrum of mental health conditions and emotional challenges. Beyond symptom relief, it focuses on identifying psychological root causes, fostering enhanced emotional well-being and holistic healing. Psychotherapy proves beneficial for diverse conditions, including managing stress, coping with trauma, addressing the impact of medical illness or loss, such as the death of a loved one, and treating specific mental health issues like depression or anxiety. Given the range of psychotherapies available, each may be tailored to specific clinical situations, ensuring a personalized and effective treatment plan.

Understanding "why" we are experiencing life the way we are can be very empowering. The Psychotherapy process will allow us to start to look at deeper rooted issues. When we evaluate our past we can begin to puzzle together your current relationships and sort through possible effective solutions. Going deeper with yourself allows for more relief and understanding.

I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which is a present focused psychotherapy and uses elements of traditional psychotherapy where the historical data is relevant to the present circumstances, thoughts and feelings that are being addressed. The client sets the agenda collaboratively with the therapist during each session. The client gains the tools over the course of therapy to use for a lifetime. Many clients see results quickly with CBT, and most see substantial results in 15 sessions.

Psychotherapy can provide a setting for you to sit, talk, think, and feel. As you do so in a supportive and understanding space, you will be able to develop more mature conclusions about your circumstances. For example, you might begin to see areas where you have relinquished your power and in so doing, reclaim your power. Psychotherapy provides a unique opportunity to identify your patterns, develop self-awareness, and make new choices.
