My Approach
My style has been described as warm, thoughtful and direct. I am motivated by respect for the people I work with and the conviction that therapy can help them.
I strongly believe that human interaction is required for healing and growth. Recent trends in psychology promote the role of the therapist as an inspirational coach or a medical technician. Both of these popular approaches interfere with the therapeutic process and prevent the kind of emotional honesty that is required for humans to grow in a deep way. Many of the people that I work with have been in therapy before and yet left feeling that the most troubling aspects of their experience couldn't be addressed with their therapist in a significant fashion.
I strive to provide the kind of safe environment that allows people to share the most difficult and troubling aspects of their lives. I believe that the very act of sharing these difficult experiences is an act of hope.
