Philosophy:
My clinical focus is on health, well-being, growth and healing, as well as problem or disease prevention, rather than on a 'mental illness' orientation.
My approach is predominately cognitive-behavioral, directive and solution-focused. My approach is also informed by a 'Person-Centered' orientation. Empathy is essential; my clients are the primary experts concerning their goals, values and needs. I make frequent referrals to services and resources that my clients may need.
