This would assist you in making better decisions and living your life in a more substantial way. I have extensive experience in helping couples, families improve communication and intimacy. My approach Over the years of experience, I have learned that each of my clients brings a different theory that needs to be treated case by case. I use several different approaches and orientations, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Bowen Therapy, and Structural Therapy, among many others. My focus My ideal clients are the ones who are committed to themselves (they will come to treatment regularly), committed to their partner, and their families. I have been able to help couples understanding underlining issues in their relationship issues. I am also experienced and successful at dealing with severely depressed partners due to divorce and s My communication style It is very important that communication in Therapy to be clear and honest. I can consider myself someone who has a direct approach to communication, even though I use the appropriate time to deliver.

I enjoy every step of the way in helping my clients, seeing their growth and improvement, while establishing an amazing professional relationship. My goals for you The treatment consists of two parts: the theory and practice. First, I explored issues in order to understand the root of the problem and reflect to bring awareness. The second part is equally challenging and important: to put into practice strategies and facilitate change.
