Treatment Approach and Style:

It is my goal to provide the highest quality work in my role as a therapist. I have a warm and conversational personal style, with a non-judgmental and compassionate attitude. My approach as a clinician is integrative, collaborative, and strength-based. It is my belief that each and every client is unique, therefore I attempt to tailor the therapeutic experience to each individual and his or her needs. As a clinician, I strive to uncover my clients’ values, strengths, and abilities in order to facilitate growth and assist them in overcoming their problems. I uphold all legal and ethical standards, including the confidentiality of every client.
