How I work: I strive to provide a comfortable, nonjudgement environment in session. I
help my clients increase insight into feelings and behaviors so that they have a better
understanding of themselves and others, this can be empowering and help to put issues
into perspective. The ultimate goal is to improve one’s well-being. I utilize the Systems
Approach to therapy, where unhealthy patterns of communication and behaviors are
identified and changed so that positive change can occur.
