I have been doing counseling and psychotherapy for over thirty years. I enjoy working with individuals and will include their significant others, including spouse, partners, family members, friends and (yes) pets. As I see it, my job as a therapist is to work with you to create an environment in which you will feel emotionally safe, and one in which you can feel OK talking about all aspects of yourself. This allows us to use your personal strengths and resources to resolve your difficultes so you can become more like the person you want to be.
I take into account that everyone has their own unique emotional and social style. So, I learn each person's view of their problems and their own definition of what their solution would look like. By doing this, I make sure that you and I are "on the same page."
I have worked in varied settings: community mental health, corporations, EAP, pain management. I have seen lots of different kinds of people with different issues. This has helped me to become a better therapist, recognizing that there are many ways to connect with my clients and many paths to solutions.

First is development of a trusting therapeutic relationship. Also a clear agreement on the client's goals for the therapy. Then, I introduce some interventions, attuned to the client's ability to integrate and understand how it relates to her situation. It is my responsibility to maintain a safe and supportive relationship environment with the client and I check on emotional safety frequently.

Despite being trained in several treatment modalities, I meet each client with an open mind. I pay attention to how the client verbalizes their difficulties and experiences same. Then I discuss with the client our possible goals using their language. When we have reached agreement on goals, I use "solution focused" language like "what will it look like when ".
