I take a client-centered approach to therapy, meaning that I am non-directive but supportive. I see clients as the experts of themselves and my therapeutic role is to help guide and support you in achieving psychological congruence.
Believe that you are capable of helping yourself. Empower you to transform into the Best version of yourself. Strive for you to live your Best life. Teach you how to thrive in the face of adversity.

Navigate the client’s therapeutic goals and empower the client to be the leader. Clients must feel empowered to lead their journey, using the S.M.A.R.T. model. The expert of my client’s life is the client, who is the independent “fixer” or “expert”.

The eclectic approach draws from multiple theoretical orientations to fit the specific needs of every individual, whose needs may not be resolved using only one approach. Identifying problems, developing plans and creating paths for success is key!
