Brent Batty

My communication style

I work to create an environment of acceptance, non-judgment, compassion, and humor, all of which lend to a comfortable experience of sharing about yourself.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist starts with my desire to give back to others. Giving back brings me joy and purpose. I am aware of what has been given to me and what I yearn for. I have experienced difficulty in life and learned how to balance the hard parts. I know others can heal, and sometimes we all need support to get there.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting collaboratively by first asking if you want to set goals. It takes time to make big decisions, and discussing options and thoughts can get you there in your own time.

Our first session

A first session is partly for gathering information about you, what your concerns are, and getting to know me. I welcome questions about myself and look forward to the exchange. During the first session, structure about future sessions and expectations that you have will be covered.
