My Approach to Helping
Oftentimes people turn to therapy when they are in the middle of a personal crisis. I believe that at these critical moments there is an opportunity for incredible personal growth. My approach balances reflection & insight with practical advice & action. My priority is to create a relaxed and respectful environment where we can work together to: Better understand the problem. Exploring how your thoughts, feelings and relationships impact your mood and behaviors helps you move away from knee-jerk responses that can derail your self esteem and make you feel out of control. Create a plan and find solutions that work. When you are in rough terrain without a map it's easy to feel lost. You don't have to continue down a path that is not working, there are other options, and together we'll find, or create, a map that helps you get where you want to be. Mobilize your strengths. You are more than a sum of your problems. I make sure to get to know the whole you, including your strengths, resources, and values. I have had the pleasure of working with literally hundreds of individuals, adults, and families. It would be a privilege to use my years of training and clinical experience to assist you.
More Info About My Practice
It can feel intimidating to meet with a therapist for the first time. I make it easy. My style is relaxed and your comfort and progress are my top priorities. In my private practice I emphasize: Personalized care By keeping my case load small I have more flexibility to meet your scheduling needs. I am also able to spend more time thinking about and researching your particular case outside of our sessions. Flexibility in time and length of sessions As opposed to the standard 45-50 minute therapy hour I reserve a full 60 minutes so that we have the flexibility to accomplish more in one visit. I offer both brief (1-8 sessions) and long term therapy (20+ sessions) and can work with your timetable and needs. Whole person approach You are more than a sum of your problems. I make sure to identify and work within the values that are important to you. My approach is to mobilize your strengths and provide strategies that address the whole you.
