I take a holistic perspective with my clients to address the health of body, mind, and spirit. I believe that a solid therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is a crucial part of the healing process, and that techniques and therapy approaches must “fit” the client in order to be effective—there is no “one size fits all” therapy.
My goal, as a counselor and therapist, is to deeply understand my client, and when this happens we are able to identify areas of life that need to be changed, and ways of going about doing that. Therapy is a collaborative process between a trained therapist and a client who wants to change. We will explore thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and patterns in your life, to identify the most effective strategies for positive change.
In the first session, we will get to know each other. I will explore your past with you to identify experiences that had lasting effects. We will also identify your strengths, talents, and coping skills. I will ask you to choose areas of your life that you wish to investigate and learn more about to promote lasting positive change.
