Shane Raymond provides individual, couples and family psychotherapy in his private agency, Brandon Mental Health. His clients include children, families, teens, adults and seniors in individual and group sessions for many different services including but not limited to:
Mental Health Treatment, Child Welfare Issues and Assessments, Adoption Related Services, Geriatric Case Management and Home Based Therapy Services.
At Brandon Mental Health an initial assessment begins he process and a plan is developed in collaboration with the client. A client driven approach is incorporated that allows the reigns of the therapeutic process to be controlled by the person or family in treatment. The varied modalities employed are contingent upon the needs of the family with each intervention being carefully chosen to maximize efficiency. Visualization, cognitive-behavioral therapy, solution-focused treatment; progressive muscle relaxation and structural family therapy are some of the more commonly employed techniques.
Kids and teens
The challenges faced by children and teens in today’s world can diminish their confidence and leave them ill equipped to succeed. At Brandon Mental Health a cognitive-based therapy approach is blended with play therapy techniques to join with the child or teen in overcoming the obstacles they face. The entire process is fluid in nature and remains open to the changing circumstances of the young person’s life.
Families
Treating families is essential in the success or failure of any individual treatment regimen. The old adage that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts is no more evident than within family therapy. Brandon Mental Health closely examines the diverse personality inherent within each family member and designs methods to enhance the family functioning.
Seniors
Many older adults enter the “golden years” expecting to enjoy the fruits of their labor and instead become saddled with numerous health problems, death of a spouse, dwindling financial resources and diminished functionality. These issues can make an older adult feel helpless to control their situation and they soon slip into depression. Connection to resources that can address each challenge is paramount in Brandon Mental Health’s approach in working with older adults.
Home Based Therapy
Brandon Mental Health is one of the few mental health treatment providers in Hillsborough County that brings therapy to the home of its clients. Home-based therapy allows for treatment to be administered in a realistic setting and has positive outcomes not witnessed in traditional office based therapy. Additionally, the convenience factor enhances session attendance and reduces anxiety associated with going to an office for mental health treatment.
