My Philosophy
I believe in...
Staying positive and focused on the here and now. Focusing on the problem is what you were doing before coming in for therapy - why not focus on the solution today?
I am committed to...
Help you feel good about yourself as quickly as possible and offering solutions that meet your needs.
I emphasize...
In working in a collaborative and respectful environment focusing on the often-neglected expertise that you have about yourself, in order to help you achieve the goals you want in your life.
I focus on...
Quick results and giving our clients the opportunity to live their own lives, without being dependent on their therapist.
More specifically, our treatment orientation is best described as Post Modern.
