My Approach to Helping

My approach to individual therapy is collaborative, supportive, non-judgmental, and goal oriented. Together we will gain a better understanding of your life situation, identify your strengths, find strategies to overcome life barriers, and develop new skills to attain your goals. I want to empower you to take control of your life and teach you how to directly contribute to your own satisfaction. I take an active approach during therapy that includes focusing on changing ineffective thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that may be contributing to current problems, and teach more adaptive, flexible, and efficient solutions. I often give homework assignments that will help you attain your therapy goals more efficiently while also giving you direct influence over your life circumstance.

My approach to couples therapy involves exploring the dynamics of your relationship, identifying each partner's needs, developing new strategies and skills to meet those needs, and helping both partners gain confidence with using this new relationship strategy. Couples therapy can help you learn how to provide and receive support from your partner, increase intimacy and communication, improve conflict resolution skills, increase sexual and relationship satisfaction, and improve relationship commitment.
