My approach to counseling is primarily client-centered, which means you're in charge. Together we’ll find solutions for your concerns, challenges and goals. In the first session, rapport building is crucial. I believe in a trust-based working relationship. I don't want you to feel uncomfortable, or feel like you’re giving up your past to a stranger. We’ll move at a pace that makes you comfortable. Clients tell me how much better they feel after one session. Mostly, clients say they feel like they’ve chatted with a friend, but realize there has been growth in the conversation. That's the way it should be.
