Isaac's Method
Goal Driven
Within the first session, we will identify the core problems keeping you stuck, come up with a path to move forward, and then get to work. Every session will focus on doing the most effective inner healing work so that you can go into your next week with hope, peace, clarity, and confidence.
Faith Integrated
All healing is from God. With the power of heaven on our side, we can face any darkness, trauma, or sin and emerge victorious. "The healing of God truly turns mourning into dancing." Psalm 30:11
Psychology Based
With over a decade in the mental health field, Isaac has experience with nearly every diagnosis and life concern. He spent the first 5 years of his career specifically working with low income adults with more severe mental health concerns (schizophrenia, bipolar, PTSD, and suicidal ideations). He is highly experienced working with trauma, anxiety, shame, depression, or anyone who just feels stuck.
Testimonials
Typical Therapy
Isaac's Approach
Focus on Compassionate Listening
I've spoken with so many therapist and supervisors who see the heart of their therapy work as compassionate listening. They are working to create space for the client to share whatever they want and to be received in that sharing.
Symptom and Problem Centered
Every therapy covered by insurance is required to report a DSM diagnosis. This sends a clear message to both therapists and clients alike that what really matters is a cluster of problematic symptoms. This focus often gives power to darkness and shame.
Indefinite Timeframe
No regular therapy starts with a cut-off date. There is an unspoken assumption that the process will take years. Unfortunately, it actually benefits the therapist if clients never graduate therapy. A consistent client is a familiar face and a steady paycheck. So unless the client creates urgency, a therapist will emphasize "calm, slow growth".
Unclear End Goals
How do you know when the therapy mission is accomplished? Most therapy relationships just go round and round solving the next problem. And guess what? Life never runs out of new problems.
Core Distortion of Human Ontology
When working with core human wounds, desires, and identity beliefs, personal views on the nature, purpose, and fulfillment of the human person make a huge difference (whether acknowledged or not). Even when a therapist has good intentions, a false ideology can do major damage to a client's mental and spiritual health.
Negates or Ignores Spiritual Truth
I was specifically taught in school not to bring any of my spiritual or religious beliefs into session. But God is the source of all healing. If you stifle God, then you will stifle healing.
Directed, Strategic, and Action-Oriented
I listen very attentively to my clients and invest my heart in each person's story. And through listening, I direct each session based on what I believe is most effective for the vision and priorities of each client.
Vision and Virtue Centered
My first session is never a diagnostic assessment, and I never give diagnoses. Rather, my first session looks beyond the current struggles to create a vision of vibrance and flourishing based in the person's core desires. Naming that vision gives direction and begins transformation.
4-Session Timeframe
Sometimes people are shy about setting big goals for 4 sessions. I almost always have to help set bigger goals (i.e. resolve a 50 year anxiety struggle in 4 sessions, let's go!!!). With a clear, accelerated timeframe, each session is focused, deep, and motivated. There's no time to get caught in the details. We go straight for the heart every time.
Equip and Send
I'm not worried about solving any of my client's problems. My aim is to equip my clients to effectively and beautifully live their own lives without any weekly support from me.
Catholic Centered Human Ontology
All of my work is founded on Catholic understanding that humans are made by God and for God. This means that each person's life has inherent and incredible dignity, meaning, purpose, and worth. I see each person as someone beloved to God, and it is an immense honor that God then entrusts that person into my care. It is both a humbling and exhilarating task.
Relies Completely and Totally on Heaven
I try to do everything in line with the prompting of the Holy Spirit. More than ever in this 4-session model, I recruit the help of heaven. Places that are too dark, scary, and painful for us to handle by ourselves, are not a problem for the power of heaven. I've developed a brand-new trauma technique that is built on heavenly intervention. It's awesome!!
Hey There! I'm Isaac.
I believe that God wants to bring freedom and healing to His people. A life of peace, joy, and passion doesn’t need to be a fanciful dream for the future, it could be your life next month!
I’m a licensed therapist with over a decade of mental health experience. Too many people get stuck in therapy for years only to feel marginally better. It doesn’t need to be that way! I’ve developed a new model that integrates the power of our Catholic faith with the tools of psychology. It’s dynamic, highly effective, and short-term.
