Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

You can expect to always be treated with dignity, respect, and warmth. You will have therapeutic interactions that are supportive and direct. You are likely to gain personal insight while also learning new strategies to cope with difficult emotions and challenging thoughts that interfere with enacting necessary change.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

My clinical philosophy is rooted in the tenets of Carl Rogers’s person-centered therapy, William Glasser’s Reality Therapy/Choice Therapy, and Miller and Rollnick’s Motivational Interviewing. I believe in meeting people where they are, operating from a humanistic and strengths-based perspective, and motivating people to move towards their identified goals in order to achieve self-actualization. I am a practitioner of existential counseling and through my practice, strive to help individuals find purpose and meaning in their life and address the predictable challenges of the human condition.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

It is essential to have an understanding of the science of counseling and like other counselors, I utilize my theoretical perspectives and extensive training and experience to foster personal growth. However, it is the art of counseling where I feel I excel. This is the skill needed to “be in the moment” with an individual during a session. I am able to be fully present, engage in active listening, and provide accurate empathy all of which make up the core conditions necessary to enact deep, personal change.
