My Therapeutic Approach
I am a passionate driven person that truly enjoys working alongside individuals to help them achieve their therapeutic goals. I truly believe that a very important step for my client to reach their goals is to establish rapport with me. It is a priority for me to ensure my client’s level of comfort and gain their trust. I believe that every individual is unique and as a counselor I use a combination of relational cultural theory, solution-focused, EMDR and emotional focused therapy.
