Contract Type FiledJanuary 23rd, 2024Welcome to the practice of Ira Israel, LMFT # 50646, LPCC # 31. Psychotherapy and counseling are healthy, positive, supported, authentic explorations into the issues and challenges that you are experiencing; psychotherapy and counseling often lead to better relationships, solutions to specific problems and issues, and reductions in negative emotions such as anxiety, anger, disappointment, frustration and depression. However, there is no guarantee of what you personally will experience and all decisions regarding personal relationships remain the responsibility of the client. One important tool you may cultivate is how to have greater awareness - “mindfulness” - of your thoughts and feelings and why you are experiencing them when you experience them. We will work together to remedy maladaptive thinking, reframe negative ideas in your personal narrative, and develop an array of tools to allow you to lead a healthier and more fulfilling life.
