My ideal client is someone who is open minded about participating in counseling, not just because someone else wants them to, but because they want to feel better or make some real changes in their life. I feel that individuals who address not only their immediate concerns, but also consider working on possible underlying issues which may be contributing to a problem is important so the true root of the problem is addressed. It is important to me that both my observations & conclusions as well as your thoughts are considered and addressed. For you to feel comfortable & be open is crucial & hope this is your experience with me.
My goal as a therapist is to find solutions that work for you on an individual basis Helping you to discover the true potential of your life, so everyday can be a celebration, and feel like a real breath of fresh air. Individuals have reported that I am "attentive, compassionate, patient, understanding, nonjudgemental" and that I create a "safe space."

I often utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to determine what behavior and/or thoughts might be holding you back from living your best life. More specifically, with CBT it is possible by the first or second session to learn and better understand the negative thinking patterns that you may be having as well as utilizing a way(s) of stopping this negative way of thinking.
