My approach to counseling incorporates cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing and solutions-focused frameworks designed to meet the unique needs of all clients. I believe that strong client/counselor relationships in a supportive encouraging environment assists clients in further understanding themselves, and the world around them. Commitment, honesty, humor, dependability, and compassion are values that define who I am personally and professionally. My hope is that these values are reflected within the work that I do with my clients and the ways in which I maintain and guide a therapeutic relationship.
