Therapists » Licensed Professional Counselor
I believe the first step in ensuring the counseling process is successful is the development of a strong therapeutic alliance that embodies empathy, nonjudgment, and mutual respect. My goal is to create a space where my client feels supported, heard, understood, and safe while sharing their experiences and exploring their struggles. My counseling style is collaborative and flexible. The interventions I utilize vary across theoretical orientations from solution-focused, active, and goal-oriented to non-directive and existential, depending on the best fit for my client’s needs. I have great admiration for a client’s autonomy and ability to discern their own path, solutions, and direction in life. My role is to assist in uncovering those answers in a supportive, accepting, empathetic, and respectful manner.
