Helping individuals is what my focus has been over the years. I believe in helping people of all ethnicities and cultures. I have spent many years working and living in over 18 countries. Having done so, using a multi-cultural approach I find it to be beneficial for clients of diverse cultures with continuing their treatment. I believe that a firm understanding of an individual’s cultural background has a significant impact on the person's worldview and behavior. As a Company, we focus on the multi-cultures in our community. We do not believe in a one size fits all therapeutic approach.
