I have been practicing since 2014 and have worked in a variety of contexts within the scope of therapy- ranging from children, couple's work, adults, teenagers, and the aging population. I deliver an authentic approach to therapy that punctuates the importance of the relationship between client and therapist as the primary mechanism for change. I believe all clients deserve to be met with dignity and respect and try to convey that in sessions.
In our first session, we will explore your reasoning for wanting to start therapy of course. But we will also look at the various domains of your life (social, vocational, personal, etc.) and see how pieces fit together. I think of therapy like a spider web that starts in the middle and all interconnects outward to making the larger picture of your life and your needs.
I am honest and communicative above all else. I tend to speak from the heart and want to make each session a place where authentic communication flows. I want to make the therapy experience a place where you feel safe, heard, and validated. Don't get me wrong- I am not afraid to ask the hard questions- but above all else, being able to ask those tough questions in the safe space is part of my forte.
I enjoy working with clients who are motivated and ready to work on areas in their life they feel growth potential in. My practice does not target specific types of clients, but rather is open to all possibilities presented. I assist clients in creating their own personalized goals as we partner to help reach those goals as defined by the client's own expectations and wants.

Came to grow therapy after a couple failed attempts at starting the process. Alan was the therapist I chose and am happy that I did. After being discouraged by past therapy options not working out as I hoped. Alan provided a great atmosphere to help put that behind me and be optimistic about my mental health goals again. Felt like Alan truly listened with intent to understand. I look forward to our next session.

I find it very hard to open up and talk ti people but with alan i didn’t have that problem. I had a problem actually looking at the pho e the entire time during my appointment because of a migraine but i felt very comfortable with talking to him about all the issues that i have with my children and ex husband
