Recent research discovered that 1 in 5 adults are struggling with a diagnosable mental illness; however, only about 40 percent of those meeting a diagnosable condition seek treatment (SAMSHA, 2012). This research highlights the multitude of ways we put off and avoid dealing with the things that matter most when it comes to our psychological well-being. While everyone could benefit from professional support at one point or another in their lives, psychotherapy and counseling is not strictly about dealing with life's problems. Dr. Wilson believes that effective treatment should address what is upsetting or not working in a person’s life while also identify what is working or could work and taking that to the next level. Ultimately, he seeks to empower people with the skills, insight, and wisdom to help themselves. Dr. Wilson takes a collaborative approach with his clients and patients to help increase their awareness of where they have been, who they are now, and where they would like to take their future. He utilizes evidenced-based treatments to ensure effective treatment, while tailoring the treatments to the unique circumstances of each individual.
