I am classically trained in Marriage, Family and Child Therapy. I have a degrees in Psychology and Family Therapy. Over 30 years of listening, encouraging and supporting people resolving personal and relationship problems. I have always believed building on our positive abilities, traits and attributes is the most effective means of dealing with conflicts and emotional issues.
Feelings matter... the outcome of any therapy should be feeling better, empowered, and optimistic. Therapy should consist of validating and supporting the things important and meaningful to us. Focusing only on negative things is not productive,
People need and deserved to be listened to ...
that means explaining the reason for seeking therapy, agreeing on what a positive outcome is, and leaving the session with a sense of validation and a vision of what can be accomplished in therapy.
