Therapeutic Approach

My treatment approach is strength based, educational, and solution focused. I strongly believe that within a supportive treatment environment, clients have the capacity to effectively identify and work through issues. With clear identification of goals, whether behavioral, interpersonal, inter-psychic or spiritual, strategies can be developed to live a more effective and successful life. In a highly interactive therapeutic setting, I listen, teach, coach and assist in problem solving.

I draw from a variety of theoretical models to help accomplish their goals including: Gottman Marital/Emotional Intelligence, Cognitive-behavioral, Psychodynamic and Gestalt. While change can be challenging, my core clinical approach is that mindful behavior and emotional understanding can positively transform the overall trajectory of a person's life.
