There are many reasons people come into therapy. Some people may be responding to unexpected changes in their lives or desiring exploration of growth.

My ideal Client would be someone struggling with very difficult circumstances in their interpersonal life. They may feel that things even look hopeless from their perspective. However; the Client comes to the first session and receives 30 CC's of hope, insight, and encouragement. They leave that first session with a clear understanding of their own personal goals that this therapist was able to help the Client discover. The objectives would be then identified from the Client's strengths, values, morals, and their own principles.
