Helping People Find Therapists & Advocating for Ethical and Healthy Therapy & Marriage Counseling Practices

My Approach to Helping

My philosophy and approach are driven by solid research, evidenced based counseling practices. It is of the utmost importance to build a solid relationship with the client/s. I provide assignments, methods and techniques for the client/s to take from the counseling session and practice on there own. I also use a great deal of role playing in the session so client/s will feel comfortable using the techniques. Client/s need to make sure they are committed to wanting change in there life. They must also be willing to follow directions and practice new methods of living. I am fully aware that some of these changes may be scarey, I will be with you every step of the way. There are no therapists that can change you. We can only guide you and be there for you, during the journey, but the footprints must be of your own.
