Lagen Biles-Schulte, Ph.D
Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Offering psychotherapy and professional case consultation.
Welcome
Welcome to my practice. Look no further if you are seeking a well-trained therapist who is eager to help you make practical and sustainable changes to improve your mood, behaviors, and joy experience. Together, we will work towards understanding both the nature of your unwanted emotions and the recurrence of your unfavorable behaviors.
Challenges are a normal part of life. They come in many forms, encompassing personal, career and relationship difficulties. Therapy can provide practical solutions to life's challenges so that you can move through them more effectively and help you create your version of happiness in everyday living. Sometimes, despite your best efforts, you can find yourself struggling to make desired changes. You are not alone.
I can help you make healthy changes and resolve long-standing wounds. We will make a personalized plan to help you learn about yourself more deeply and develop tools that allow you to resolve any emotional suffering and begin to thrive.
If you or someone you care about is looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. Give yourself the gift of therapy and call today for a 5-10 minute free consultation or to schedule your first appointment!
My Therapy Style and the Change Process
Starting therapy can be intimidating. My experience is extensive and diverse and my style is lively, reflective, assertive and compassionate. You may worry of what you might discover about yourself, what changes might be necessary, and if it is going to be painful. No matter the trigger, the pain that led you to me is your signal that it is time for a course correction.
My assertive therapeutic process will help maximize our time together and help YOU eliminate the struggle, suffering, or problems you bring to therapy. You will discover that becoming your authentic self is the most natural thing in the world and the only real difficulty is in how much you fight against or cooperate with your own unfolding.
After many years in practice, my tools as a psychologist are numerous and varied. I am equally at home with brief, solutions-focused therapy and with longer term analytical work. In session, I hold my clients accountable and point out patterns that maintain unwanted habits, thoughts, emotions, or behaviors.
I am goal oriented and want to get to the root of your concern. This can be intense, but liberating. I place significant value on developing deep insight around the past while also creating measurable progress today.
