About My Clients
My work has led to a niche for people facing significant changes such as with careers, retirement, empty nest, becoming a parent, marriage, divorce, and grief. Despite my experience with a variety of conditions and specific needs, I prefer to look at the whole picture as opposed to one specific issue. I focus on overall wellness, which includes tuning into all the different areas of life and looking for patterns that may have resulted in seeking counseling.
My Background and Approach
I believe that everyone is capable of change and that everyone deserves autonomy, respect, and dignity. No two people are the same and should never be treated the same. It is the job of the clinician to learn about people’s individuality and learn what works and doesn’t work. My upbringing and training have given me respect for people’s ability to learn about themselves and choose for themselves. I am careful to learn about the specific needs of the people in my care rather than assuming I know what’s best based on my experience. My passion for learning and listening includes sensitivity to the uniqueness of each person’s history, culture, beliefs, and desires.
