Therapy style
My therapy style is to help clients feel relaxed, by establishing a comfortable atmosphere, sometimes using humor where appropriate, to help clients get to a place where they can speak genuinely and honestly about their lives and their struggles. Coming from a social work background of meeting the client where they are at, I incorporate this stance every step of the way. I have a genuine interest in hearing people's stories, which client’s feel, and they appreciate the attention and connection that is being formed. I gather information through what they say about themselves and how they see themselves in the world, and my focus is to help them reach their goals.
