My focus is on helping them discover who they are by encouraging them to evaluate the way they think about themselves and the world around them. I assist them in disputing thoughts that sustain their negative perspective, and work with them to find a more balanced way of viewing themselves and the world so that they no longer feel lost," says Ms. Hodge.
