What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session, my clients notice my motivational traits of concern, commitment and compassion to the treatment of every individual client irrespective of his/her situation. I collaborate with my clients to find roadmap to their recovery goals. I dig deep with my client to explore various situations, trailing issues from childhood, adolescence to their present to discover what I called "life back pack".

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I believe that there is no substitute to experience and education. My exposure to various setting and dealing with individuals from various cultural background brings exceptional therapeutic process with empathetic perception of issues, and with positive regard and that foster therapeutic alliance easily. Many of my clients find solution to their quest in shorter period.
