I believe in individualized personality and so are the concerns that may involve an eclectic approach. My initial steps are always focused on assessing the best treatment for my client and tailoring the therapy as the session progresses. Client involvement in the decision-making process is vital in the progress so informing pros and cons of any suggested treatment are always a part of my therapy.
