In addition, I also work with clients using approaches that include meditation, mindfulness and Ericksonian Hypnosis.

I have been practicing psychotherapy for over 25 years ever seeking to improve my knowledge and skill in the service of providing the best care I can for the clients that come to see me. Feel free to contact me when you're ready and we can discuss how we can work together to help you achieve your goals.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Establishing trust and rapport. Ensuring clients feel safe, understood, heard, and validated. Getting information regarding background in a number of areas for context done through a very natural, pleasant process. Identifying areas that the client wants to focus upon and working together to understand the best way to work together to identify and achieve the client's goals while providing support and reassurance all along the way. Compassion, acceptance and patience are always made a priority through the entire process.
