What should a new client know about working with you?
He is an outgoing and collaborative clinician who is compassionate and driven to support clients where they are in their life circumstances, using humor and light conversation to build rapport and create strong therapeutic relationships. He emphasizes client autonomy, without pressuring or forcing anyone into work they are not ready for. He is strength-based and tends to focus on how clients can use their strengths to make progress on their goals, encouraging clients by motivating them for change. He is not afraid to go deep or explore hard situations and have hard conversations. He sees himself as a balanced clinician who can be comforting and also challenge clients when appropriate.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
He starts by emphasizing the therapeutic relationship, rapport-building through light conversation and getting to know one another. He then helps the client identify their strengths and areas of improvement, speaks with them about how they see and define therapy, and helps define a course of action or treatment plan with goals, focusing on smaller steps toward the big picture, including skill building and implementing weekly prompts (homework) when appropriate to reinforce active participation.
