DISCOVERING MEANING, ACHIEVING GOALS:
YOUR HOLISTIC PATH TO RECOVERY WITH DANIEL ALEGO
I operate an ethical practice that respects the cultural relativeness of assessments, diagnosis, and treatment of various human distress using pre-and post-modern therapeutic modalities. I am trained in:
MY THERAPEUTIC APPROACH
As a helping professional, I align with humanistic psychology, person-centered therapy, and a common factors approach. I believe that the client is the expert on their experience and making decisions about change, and I am the expert in the therapeutic process.
Interpersonal relationships are essential, and I feel that a warm, accepting, respectful, supportive, and trusting therapeutic relationship is a crucial indicator of successful and lasting second-order change that results in positive and successful therapeutic outcomes. I aspire to meet each client where they are and begin to instill hope and restore balance.
I accomplish this by being curious, listening with empathy, understanding your perspective, validating your experience, and providing a safe therapeutic environment for individuals to express any distress within various life domains. From this, we can walk together and begin the healing process. In collaboration, we will set goals, experience self-discovery, find meaning, manage change, gain coping skills, and ultimately transform life’s challenges into self-mastery. This process results in symptom relief, improved daily functionality, enhanced motivation, personal empowerment, and increased wellbeing so you can move through life with ease and experience a meaningful and fulfilling human experience.
Together, we will build a positive and supportive relationship in which you can experience a deepened sense of peace, wholeness, and wellbeing in any aspect of your life you choose. It is my intention to foster an atmosphere of trust and healing and to create a “safe container” within which this growth can occur and anchor.
I believe in working with the individual to help them to make and achieve goals through this holistic recovery. I believe in helping individuals to look beyond any diagnosis to focus on strengths and ways to manage their symptoms and live flourishing and independent lives. In helping individuals to reach their goals, I strive to use my experience, as well as my honest and open style of communication, to act as a positive support to help them to fulfill their longings. The methods used in treatment will vary depending upon the particular needs of each individual.
