I firmly believe that having an unwavering belief in the capacity of humans to make their lives better is an important foundation of the work that I do. It is not always easy, but with the right support, and the right tools, people can make sense of their problems, and make the changes they need to build a life more in line with how they want to live.

I have found that the therapeutic relationship is an extremely powerful tool for healing. I want to build relationships based on trust and a deeper understanding, in which clients feel safe enough to share their insecurities, and feel safe enough to question their own experience. Building a healthy relationship is the foundation for making changes.
Gestalt therapy focuses on using the therapeutic relationship as a vehicle for change. I often combine that with elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Existential/Humanistic therapy to help provide clients with the tools they need to get through life. My clients have thanked me for my combination of compassionate support and a no-nonsense approach based on what works in helping them reach their therapeutic goals, and I have taken great satisfaction from the healthy changes I have seen within my clients.
