I believe therapy can be fun and transforming! Therapy is like getting a tune-up for your car. If your car is 18 years old, it might be time to do some maintenance! This is okay; you want your car to run well! Therapy is for the client, YOU. And you are an integral part in your own therapy. You create your own goals; I only help facilitate those goals. I see myself as a guide, someone to help you put the puzzle pieces together to create a fuller, more complete, life. A life that is filled with deeper meaning and sense of purpose. Main Therapeutic Approaches: Logo Therapy (Viktor Frankl) and Cognitive, both of which are direct.
