I view the individual as greater than his or her problems, "The whole being greater than the sum of it's parts."
I empower individuals to believe in themselves and that they can grow, heal and change.
I create a collaborative process where the individual and myself work as a team.
I build a therapeutic relationship that creates safety, trust and honesty. I see the individual as an equal.
Sometimes the therapy needs to go beyond learning coping skills, gaining insight and brief solutions. We as human beings all have core psychological issues which shape our experiences. Sometimes those experiences are painful and should be explored in a safe and sructured manner. "In order to heal it, we need to feel it"
" Things do not change; we change."
- Henry David Thoreau
