About

My approaches include: 1) working toward understanding how your life experiences have come together to bring about your current thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and life circumstances; 2) using concrete and structured homework assignments to help you achieve your goals, resolve relationship issues, find greater happiness, and develop greater control over anxiety, depression, or anger; 3) discussing philosophical and existential aspects of life as they relate to your concerns; 4) providing support and empathy when life brings you hardship or pain; and 5) helping you to articulate your needs, desires, and goals, and to develop plans and solutions to help you satisfy them.

I prefer to look at clients as whole individuals (or whole relationships) rather than diagnoses. As such, I am likely to focus on issues like making sense of your life, improving your relationships, making healthier choices, and finding joy in your work.

I believe in being as straight-forward as possible in counseling, and I like to utilize humor whenever possible.
