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

My Approach to Helping

In working with you, my goal is to create the environment in which you most readily evolve into a growth enhancing experience. My approach is to work with you in your cultural and historical contexts respecting your individuality without trying to fit you into a theoretical orientation. Our goal in working together is to increase your awareness of your needs, behavior patterns, and responsiveness to yourself and the world around you in order to further fulfill your innate potentials. I approach therapy holistically drawing on a wide variety of tools and methods to most effectively meet your unique individual needs.
