I am a licensed clinical social worker and a retired professor from Arizona State University where I taught counseling skills to graduate students for 23 years. I have provided counseling services to individuals, groups, couples and families for over 30 years. Throughout my journey some of my greatest inspiration and insights have come through my relationship with my wife and soul mate of over 40 years and our 3 now adult amazing children.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My clients are the experts on themselves, together in the initial session(s) I believe in forming a partnership to understand from the client’s perspective the problem. This is fundamental in counseling before offering solutions or interventions, I believe it is essential for me as your therapist to invest time in comprehensively understanding your presenting problem(s). This understanding will form the foundation upon which effective intervention strategies can be built together.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I genuinely care about the well-being of others. Both in my professional and personal life I take pride in being committed to helping others live their best self. Professionally the feedback I have consistently received is that I demonstrate compassion, warmth, and dedication to supporting others in their journey towards healing and personal growth.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
In my life journey I have found that providing therapy offers a unique opportunity to make a profound and lasting difference in the lives of others by fostering healing, growth, and resilience. I believe that within a crisis there is both danger and opportunity. I receive great satisfaction from helping others discover how obstacles can be opportunities for growth and learning. I challenge my clients to embrace 3 unavoidable realities of life, there will be some pain & uncertainty and there will always be work to be done and yet we have the opportunity to not only preserve but to thrive and live our best self.
