As a systems trained therapist I believe in the power of relationships. My therapeutic approach honors and explores key relationships in a client’s life as they pertain to the problem that the client brings to therapy, and fostering a strong therapeutic alliance, integrating compassionate understanding to create a safe environment to explore client needs.
