Therapy style
I bring almost a decade of therapeutic experience with children, adolescents, adults, at-risk youth, incarcerated young people, 12-Steppers, and men and women with addiction and other issues to work for you. I offer a compassionate, intelligent, understanding, and non-judgmental presence to support you on your journey. I want to help you find full self-acceptance, and become the whole person you aspire to be. I listen closely, try to see the whole situation from your side, and then give honest, considered, and caring feedback, and offer powerful corrective tools to aid you. I am an advocate for your health and wholeness.
