WHATEVER YOU THINK ABOUT YOU BRING ABOUT.
This is the basis of positive psychology, where I use positive individual traits and experiences in your life coupled with exercises that will transform negative thoughts, feelings, ideas, and behaviors. My work with persons in prison produced profound effects while using this approach combined with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to change the thinking patterns of inmates. You have the power within you for change and growth...trust yourself.
