I perceive therapy as a process of collaboration between therapist and client in discovering the individual’s full potential, regardless of their life situation. During our time together we explore the individual’s life, strengths, identify dysfunctional patterns of thinking or behaving, and build up their emotional power and coping skills in order to regain confidence that they can handle things that may have originally seemed overwhelming and unbearable. I believe the rapport between therapist and client is an essential ingredient for successful therapy. I aim to create a safe and supportive atmosphere in which clients examine meaningful aspects of their lives.
I see each therapeutic experience as unique due to the differing needs, capabilities and cultural experiences of each client. My practice working with diverse clients allows me to tailor each therapeutic experience to individual needs. I utilize a variety of therapeutic resources and techniques. I also work with highly functioning individuals to assist them in deriving more fulfillment from their life and in their relationships.
Sometimes we overlook how strong, forgiving, and ambitious we can be. People have an amazing power to heal, to rebuild, to fall, to pick themselves up and to experience life...better.
