I believe in the process of Psychotherapy and strive to encourage each of my clients to think of the setting I provide to them, as a safe space. I understand that dealing with unresolved issues can be a daunting task. Oftentimes a client's goals include resolving barriers in communication and reconnecting relational bridges/ties that have been severed. I work to help my clients manage their feelings and process their emotions while also assisting their families, to help them understand and learn how to assist their loved ones. We will work together to face those obstacles with strength and courage.

My ideal client is one that is open to change. A client that, even if they see no way through, they trust that I am there to do all I can to help them, not just to listen, watch the clock, and end a session, but to be invested in their transformation from start to finish. My ideal client is one who is comfortable, even if not at first, celebrating themselves and not being fearful about trying again. Things aren't always successful on our first try, but my ideal client will understand this, embrace the lesson in each situation, and be willing to use what they've learned to try again.
