Hi, and welcome to BetterHelp. My name is Ronnie Mitchell, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist with 27 years of experience and an extensive work history on a psychiatric unit at an outstanding medical hospital. I’ve applied my expertise from the years of experience at the hospital to my private practice, meeting each of my clients’ unique emotional issues with empathy and support as we work to win the battle and fight to the finish line together. There’s nothing I haven’t seen before. I begin by explaining how happiness is an inside job and you can’t depend upon anyone else to regulate your emotions but you. I then provide the tools you need to get off the emotional roller coaster ride you’ve been on and I remind you that the one person in this world who is most important for you to please is you. I become your guide and you begin the exploration of your final frontier, to find the true treasure you’ve always been longing for: inner peace, and your true self. My treatment approach is eclectic – a collaborative effort with my clients who actively engage with me, into the looking glass of their minds, to see issues in a new light in order to resolve them. I utilize psychoanalytic and family systems approaches. We connect the past and the present to change the future. We improve insight, self-esteem, and coping skills. Life starts to be more fulfilling. The grass looks greener and the sky looks bluer when you have hope for the future. Therapy is about change, strength, and courage. You already have all of these, so I’m looking forward to helping you succeed.
