My Approach to Helping
Successful therapy, in my opinion, depends upon two very essential criteria: engagement and trust between client and therapist. I believe this is accomplished by offering a totally supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere wherein the client can feel safe.

How Psychotherapy Can Help

Psychotherapy provides clients with insight into their actions and feelings. It allows clients to understand and forgive themselves as well as recognize their control over the choices they make. I have had several successes working with teens and adults who are self or property distructive: cutting, destruction to the property of others, risk-taking behaviors.
