I take a straight-forward and supportive approach to my clients. We work together to set goals, and work toward reaching those goals within a warm therapeutic relationship. I work eclectically, using techniques from various therapy orientations as best fits each client.
Clients will take away a feeling of safety and of being heard and understood. In addition, they will take away ideas and strategies to use outside of each session in order to decrease symptoms and reach their goals.
