Directive therapy is a guided processes in which the client learns how their experiences have shaped their emotions, behaviors, and thinking - determining the course of their destiny. In this process, the client will learn to transform their thinking to bring the change they long for. Unlike other forms of therapy, directive therapy allows the client to see the therapist at work, as the therapist updates the client from session to session on how their analysis is progressing, how their problem is structured, and how to effect meaningful change

My philosophy is to teach the client to be their own therapist. The client is given a detailed description of how their assessment is progressing, how their problem is structured, and how they may arrive at a solution. Who are you? Why are you, as you are? Where are you going? We will explore the complex puzzle of you. In this process of self-discovery, you will learn to heal the inner-self.

I offer direct therapy, a modality of therapy in which the client is given detailed feedback on how their analysis is progressing, how their problem is understood, and real advice on moving towards a solution. Clients often complain that their therapist is doing nothing. In directive therapy, the client can see the therapist at work and is given an opportunity to participate in the assessment.
