I operate from a strength’s based prospective which is informed by integrating person-centered theory, cognitive behavior therapy, and motivational interviewing that emphasizes self-actualization, and responsibility. I view counseling from a tripartite approach where I assist my clients with self-awareness, gaining knowledge, and developing skills that may assist them with strategies to manage effectively and successfully the various transitions experienced in life. I believe people long to live lives that reflect harmony between their thoughts and their actions. Many times, stress and distress complicate this effort. The therapeutic environment represents a safe place to explore options, diverge thinking, and resolve tension.
