My Approach to Helping

My work with individuals is characterized by abiding respect. I consider it a privilege to enter the world of the individual with the solution-focused goal of tailoring, with the person, a plan that will assist in achieving the therapeutic goals most effectively and efficiiently. Solution-focused therapy is a very efficient and cost-effective approach to resolving conflicts or circumstances which all individuals experience from time to time. It is focused in the "here-and-now" . Where the individual is, where they want to go, and assistance getting there.

More Info About My Practice

Often when individuals or couples consider counseling or psychotherapy they experience a degree of nervousness or trepidation. In actuality, the respect afforded the individual, the concern of a compassionate helper, the empathy communicated by a skilled therapist, very quickly replaces the fear and the individual/couple is ready to achieve the goals they have been putting off for so long.
