First session
In our first sessions we start with introductions, the specific challenges being experienced and formulating goals for the therapeutic sessions.
Strengths
Having worked as a therapist for more than 30 years I have developed strong listening skills that help with my ability to identify the root causes of the challenges being faced.
Ideal clients
I enjoy working with families, couples and individuals but my approach is always toward an understanding on the systems we live within and how those systems impact our lives.
Treatment methods
Couples Counseling
Improved communication skills, prioritizing the relationship, exploring shared goals, respect and appreciation, how love is demonstrated and the importance of mutual trust - all is explored.
