I am unable to describe an ideal client. I welcome the full range of issues and personalities. Even in cases, where a client is not sure what their goals are, I look forward to helping them become more clear about a direction. We all want to be our best possible selves no matter what we bring to the table. Life is complicated and sometimes ecouragement, support, and guidance gives us the push we need.

I use a person centered approach and pace myself with the client's timing and readiness. Most clients respond well to my strengths driven approach, along with cognitive strategies. Every effort is made for the session atmosphere to be comfortable and for the client to feel encouraged.

I use mostly client centered therapy where my focus and framework is to understand how you see the situation, respectful of your capacity to grow. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other approaches are used when a client may benefit. Our work is a partnership and the journey is to build and expand upon your potential.
