Clients say this provider is
In my 25+ years as psychotherapist I have a profound respect for the vast human experience and the resilience of the human spirit. I am a welcoming and safe presence for clients who are seeking to be heard and understood. I have a compassionate and direct style that conveys my ability to offer a unique perspective. I work with each individual's strengths to build skills and coping strategies to manage symptoms and life's stresses.
I discuss what therapy is and isn't and I review the consents and confidentiality policies. I ask questions about the the client's background as well as their current situation to get to know them and what brought them into therapy.
Most clients feel immediatly comfortable with me and appreciate that I provide gentile and honest feedback
I work well with adults and adolescents, male or female. I am comfortable providing individual, couple or family therapy.
