Vedabrata (Ved) Basu MS, LPC , EMDR Certified, CCTP-II
I transitioned to the field of Mental Health Counseling because I wanted to be in a healing profession.
I completed my M.S. Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio. While also completing Basic EMDR Therapy Training.
During my internship, I worked with clients with issues such as bereavement, depression, ADHD, emotional dysregulation, behavioral problems, acute psychiatric symptoms requiring psychiatric hospitalization, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
I tend to be client-centered in my approach. I work with the underlying philosophy that a client has the potential, within himself or herself, to proceed in the direction that leads to his or her intended goal. The therapist plays a supporting role in the client’s journey by providing validation, empathy, positive regard, and appropriate counseling interventions that can help the client to move forward in the direction of accomplishing his or her therapeutic goals.
I am interested in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Therapy, and EMDR. However, I also believe that each client is unique and has a unique set of needs. Therefore, techniques from different counseling modalities can be combined and integrated to an appropriate set of counseling interventions that can provide optimum client benefits.
