As a licensed mental health therapist for over 35 years, what is most important to me is understanding what the people that I work with want in their therapy. As we face stressful challenges in our lives, we can all benefit from gaining another, independent perspective to help guide us to solutions. The connection between a therapist and those they work with is most important. Finding the right "fit" may take some time, however therapy is most successful when this occurs. I use a combination of Person-Centered, Collaborative and Solution-Focused Therapies.

My approach depends largely on what each client is looking for and the pace they need. I find it helpful to offer psycho-education around mental health to support client’s better understanding of themselves. I lean into narrative, harm reduction, and cognitive behavioral therapies, specifically Trauma Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I do all this while using person in environment lens.
