We will work to identify underlying issues and to rationalize a plan that will allow you to navigate that in a healthy and successful way. Goals will be realistic and feasible. You will feel valued and your strengths will be highlighted.

You will own your experience. We will discuss what brought you here and, when you are ready, I will challenge you to look deeper. You may experience feelings of validation, acknowledgment, relief, and self-understanding.
After an evaluation, we will work together to meet your treatment goals using up-to-date clinical approaches. Good therapy is always focused on helping you better understand yourself and the changes you want to make. It is not about indoctrination.
