About
There is no ideal client. I'm best suited to deal with people where they're at with an open mind, an open heart, and much experience in life. I feel very fortunate and privileged to do the kind of work I do. There is no greater and more meaningful honor in life than to be in a position to be of assistance to others, to be trusted, and for others to be able to open up to me. I am very thankful.
I work with all kinds of people, ages, and life circumstances ranging from the very poor to the privileged. I work with many adolescents and college students as well as children and adults. I enjoy difficult cases.
I have been blessed by excellent training and supervisors. Developing resilience and utilizing strengths are important aspects of my work. I am sensitive to financial concerns and have not raised my fee in the last 15 years. I work with many clients around the world via phone and Skype. It is important to me that my clients feel accepted and understood.
