PHILOSOPHY
I believe in working closely with people to help them reach their fullest potential through developing goals, creating healthy boundaries, and empowering them for change.
Using evidence-based cognitive behavioral methods, I will help you challenge everyday thinking that keeps you locked in self-destructive or unhealthy patterns, to ultimately improve your quality of life and satisfaction of relationships.
It is crucial for you to understand your issues fully so corrective action and healing may happen. I will meet you where you are in life and incorporate your culture, personal talents and strengths, religion, sexual orientation, and ethnic background into the counseling process for authentic exchange.
Together we can explore what is limiting your quality of life and help you reach your goals for change through the dynamic process of
therapy.
