My ideal client is a person dedicated to making positive changes in her/his life. These adjustments may be as simple as a new hair style or as complex as brain surgery. I invite the client to tell me about himself, including hobbies and interests. What is he most proud of? What might he like to improve? What was the nicest thing anyone ever said about him? What really hurt? I encourage the client to comment on the paintings in the room and what they might have in common. They all have something to do with going somewhere. I tell them that my favorite professor at Boston College, William Meissner. S. J. said of therapy, "It's all
about relationships The relationship cures. " I put strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship in my work with clients. I want those who seek my services to talk freely without fear of judgment, criticism or rejection. I gesture to my resume which they glance at. I tell them my age, how long I have been in the field
A former high school teacher, I am passionate about my clients' unrealized strengths and talents.. I know what it feels like not to fit in. I want my clients to leave my office feeling understood , appreciated and empowered.
