Therapy Style
I have a warm, direct, and genuine style, and I primarily use CBT approaches. I believe that we all have the capacity for growth and change, regardless of what we have been through or how long we have struggled. I will strive to understand your life experiences and personal/family/cultural values, so we can work together to reach your goals in therapy.
