Some of the approaches used are CBT , SFBT, TF- CBT , and holistic psychotherapy.
My name is Lashaunta Hogan. You just made the first step, Congratulations! The initial step in asking for help can sometimes be the hardest to make. Reading this is that step. Life can be overwhelming and when those times occur, it helps to have someone trained and unbiased to help navigate those situations. Choosing someone to help traverse transitional life circumstances, choosing new life directions, or just having someone to work through normal everyday life, is one of the most important choices you can ever make. You should never feel embarrassed or judged to ask for help. I hope that I can be that person for you.

I tailor a variety of counseling approaches to meet the needs of each client, but primarily implement cognitive behavioral and solution-focused therapy.
My main focus is to help clients identify and build on their personal strengths so they can overcome the obstacles preventing them from realizing their full potential. My first priority when I meet with a client is to collaboratively establish therapy goals and determine what they would like to attain from the counseling process. Based on this information I personalize each session to help my clients achieve their goals. With every interaction, my goal is always the same: that you leave my office feeling that you were heard and validated.

I am currently also able to conduct cognitive /IQ, giftedness, achievement, and/or ADHD testing with individuals aged 16 and up.
It is my belief that therapy is a place where anyone can work towards a greater understanding of themselves and the patterns that might contribute to their difficulties. I practice attentive listening with the goal of fostering self-awareness, personal growth, and alleviation from emotional pain. I operate from a psychodynamic perspective when working with adults and teens, meaning that we will work towards a deeper understanding of unconscious conflicts, and examine how past experiences and relationships may be affecting how you operate in the present.

Sarah utilizes interventions from evidence based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and DBT to work with her clients towards their individual goals.
Sarah believes that each client is the author of his or her own life experiences, and has the capability of maneuvering and pushing forward through circumstances in life. She recognizes it can be difficult and scary learning and implementing the tools needed to accomplish fears and worries. "It's like exercising a new muscle. It may hurt and get sore by working-out, but the muscle grows stronger the more effort you put into working on it." She has extensively researched the concept of empathy to help clients work through their trauma to develop secure attachment styles as well as understanding perspectives and co-dependency actions.

In your lifetime, you may have had some experiences that negatively impacted your mental health and well-being. Many of these experiences may have derived from adversities and even trauma in your childhood or adulthood; causing you to struggle in some areas of your life. It may seem that you are “stuck” in time psychologically or emotionally and, find it hard to have healthy relationships with others. If this is you, you are not alone; neither are you "flawed”. Your natural survival mechanisms helped you along the way. Therapy is tool that can help you get "unstuck" and heal through awareness, acceptance, alliance, and action.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists

How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?

Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario (catastrophizing) or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.

When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?

It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.

How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?

To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.

Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?

CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
