I believe that effective therapy can promote happiness and renewed sense of self-worth and understanding through supported self-discovery. My counseling style is non-judgmental, collaborative, caring and inclusive. I am an active listener and seek to provide an unbiased perspective in a confidential and safe environment. I draw upon a variety of therapeutic orientations in order to meet the unique needs of each client, including relational, psycho-dynamic, cognitive behavioral, person centered, and solution focused. I have experience treating families and individuals, as well as significant work experience with adolescents, teens and young adults.
