My Approach to Helping

My philosophy is that we are communal beings who cannot discover our full selves outside of relationship with others; therefore, I believe in the counseling relationship as primary healing factor. It is only having earned client trust within authentic relationship that I have earned the right to offer suggestions / theories / techniques / homework / etc. Once relationship is established, I employ techniques that vary depending on what the client is seeking -- behavioral change vs. emotional shift vs. thought change or a combination.
