I am honored and humbled by your willingness to work with me, and by your courage in seeking outside psychological assistance. Armed with an advanced degree in Clinical Counseling and numerous ongoing trainings in individual and couples therapy, I believe I am well positioned to help you. I take a deeply compassionate and empathic approach to my work, but I don't shy away from being firm, lovingly confrontational, and telling it like it is.
I am upfront and real with my clients. I will treat you and your struggles with respect AND I will treat you as an adult who is responsible for their own decisions. I will offer support, compassion, and perspective on your journey of transformation.
I don't believe I do you any favors by simply nodding my head in sympathy. On the contrary, I believe in the power of telling you what I see and inviting you to update your patterning so that you can change your life.
In other words, I firmly believe in the transformative power of therapy. And I don't think you should expect anything less than thorough and lasting change.
