Therapy Style
My counseling style is pretty laid back. I have been described as supportive, caring, and compassionate, with a pretty good sense of humor. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles.
I'm here to help you sort through the things that are difficult right now and offer you a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgment.
