My approach to therapy
Research in the area has consistently shown that the greatest contributing factor to successful outcomes in therapy is the relationship between client and therapist . My approach to therapy is to focus first on building a strong therapeutic alliance with each individual. Once we are able to build a foundation of trust, collaboration, and empathy we can learn together what the most effective therapeutic interventions will be for you.
What you can expect from me
Expect to explore and learn about yourself. Expect to be challenged about your perspective and perceptions, especially those that are standing in the way of your emotional growth.
