It is important to tailor session therapeutic approaches to the needs and goals of each client. To accomplish this, I take a multi-faceted therapeutic approach session approach. This includes such therapies as CBT, DBT, Seeking Safety, Rogerian, and motivational interviewing. I have a special fondness for working with individuals who have one or more issues with traumatic backgrounds, relationship problems, anxiety, depression, and lack of self-confidence. I believe that teaching positive coping skills in combination with focusing on a person's strengths and abilities will help them lead more productive lives.
I attempt to create a comfortable environment for people. The focus is on helping clients develop trust in me. I do this by accepting the person without judgment and being myself. Setting goals with clients is done through the first two or three sessions in conjunction with them.
I have over 20 years of experience in individual and group counseling. I got interested in counseling because my own family has a background in mental health and addiction issues. Initially, I worked with teens who came from troubled families which further fostered by the belief that counseling could be a means to help others improve their lives.
