Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Based on my personal value system: being optimistic, a great listener, a strong communicator, and maintaining confidentiality are of utmost importance. I believe that to have a strong therapeutic alliance it is important to have difficult conversations which can make healthy relationships. My passion is women's issues and the multitude of incorrect, mixed, and inept information that has been sensationalized to make women feel inadequate and overwhelmed.
