"Therapy is an art, not a science. Since every person is a unique individual, therapy will vary depending on the persons involved. Hence, there can be no one approach to therapy which works for everyone. To facilitate change, different techniques may be used. However, the forging of a therapeutic alliance is essential for change. Research has shown that a successful outcome in therapy depends on this. In humanistic psychology, emphasis is placed on self-actualization. A propensity to self-actualize is presumed to exist in all persons. Karen Horney made the following analogy to illustrate this phenomenon."

""The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes." Marcel Proust I believe that finding new ways to look at and think about ourselves, our lives and the world is an integral part of the therapeutic process. Often the concerns which bring us into therapy reflect our attempts to adapt to and deal with the painful challenges and transitions of life. Building awareness of our characteristic ways of being in the world results in the freedom to choose a new way to be. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults and families."
