I work with a variety of individuals, from ages 15 to 115, whether they come in seeking symptom relief for depression or anxiety, or they are facing challenges involving more existential issues. I believe in building a strong trusting relationship with those I work with, and with this type of foundation in place, we can explore everything from grief and loss, to issues surrounding sexuality; from how you see your place in this world, to ways that you can best integrate yourself into it. Your conception of your own self-actualization is my most important guideline.
I utilize a number of approaches, but I like Motivational Interviewing the best, because it allows me to show the utmost respect for the individual by focusing on their goals, and their own ideas for reaching them. I am at most a gentle guide on someones journey of self-discovery.
I strive to create an environment that is safe and comfortable, that fosters exploration and enlightenment. I firmly believe that individuals carry strength and understanding within themselves and I am honored to be allowed to work with people to help them uncover and utilize both to their greatest potential.
