My approach to therapy involves an interactive and collaborative style towards self discovery. I prefer to join in with my clients to achieve therapeutic goals that enhance their quality of life. I believe a therapy relationship is designed to facilitate the desired change or seeks to direct these efforts as appropriate for the client and counselor.
I prefer to collaborate with my clients through a modality that allows them feel comfortable with sharing their experiences. It has been my experience that these modalities can be effective through Individual or Group sessions. It is my goal to remain consistent and be open to change as well as respecting my client’s autonomy to choose what they want for themselves. I have a background in Human Services and a specialization in Marriage and Family Counseling, I have provided counseling services in both Hospital and Private Practice settings.
In the initial counseling session, it is expected to focus on the chief complaint and concern for the client. I establish a preferred method of communication and review the importance of confidentiality and safety.
