Great to meet you!

I most frequently use Person-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness/Heartfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy, which can encourage elements of independence, honesty, acceptance and direction to the therapy process. My therapy style can range anywhere between non-directive and directive in nature, depending on what each client prefers each session, and I draw on a blend of my education, experience and intuition.

Client Review

'Stephen is incredibly well spoken and truly listens to what you have to say. He takes notes on topics that you talk about, and can help you pull the pieces together, especially if your issues seem to be coming from all over the place (like mine). I feel like he truly thinks his way through what he says and has a desire to understand you in order to help you better understand yourself.''

My approach to therapy

The process of therapy also includes building a healthy therapeutic relationship of trust between myself and my clients and ultimately helping clients to develop or increase trust in themselves.
