Individualized
Dr. Proost’s therapeutic approach is guided by his belief in three principles of therapy: Collaboration, Communication, and Acceptance. These principles provide the foundation for the treatment experience and help to establish a caring, safe, and supportive environment from which to experience personal growth. Therapy should not be a mysterious or misleading process, and he strives to ensure that each client is an active and valued participant throughout the process. There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to mental health, however, and Dr. Proost develops treatment plans that are tailored to the needs of each individual based on the presenting concerns, personal strengths, social supports, and phase of life to produce tangible social, behavioral, educational, and occupational gains.
