Therapy is a collaborative work that considers the life experiences, patterns, relationships, and beliefs that have shaped and currently influence your ways of being in the world. I am committed to identifying and exploring challenges that currently bring you to therapy and the innate strengths and resources that will allow you to make the changes you desire.

I am committed to providing a safe and accepting therapeutic environment that facilitates growth, insight, and change. I am trained within a variety of treatment models and will work with you to determine the approach that best fits your needs.

At our initial meeting, we will assess your current needs and concerns to collaboratively decide if we can work together. We will evaluate the results of our work together periodically to determine the need for additional sessions, termination, or an outside referral for further assistance. Ultimately, you must decide to use what you gain from the therapeutic process and incorporate it into your daily life. I may challenge some assumptions or perceptions as well as propose different ways to view, think or manage situations you present during your session.

During the course of therapy, I will use therapeutic approaches based on the problems you present, your choices and feedback as well as my assessment of what may benefit you.
