My Approach to Helping
MY philosophy of treatment is to use an integrated approach to helping individuals. I believe that confronting and solving problems in one's life can be and is often a painful process, which most of us tend to avoid. Drawing heavily on my belief that every life problem offers us a valuable lesson to learn from, I use my training in solution focus therapy, motivational enhancement therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and relational therapy to assist individuals to reach their goals. I tell everyone I know that I can't imagine doing anything else in life. I love being a therapist and my 20 years of experience in the field has been extremely rewarding.
