Therapy style
While science is the backbone of my practice, I see psychotherapy as an art form and a sacred practice that draws upon one's deeply held values and cultural & indigenous resources. I would describe my style as creative, contemplative, and collaborative. My clients initially come to me for answers, but they eventually realize that the truth lies deep inside of them. My joy is watching my clients tapping into their inner wisdom and cultivating their skills to live meaningful lives.
