- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When clients initially come to therapy, they oftentimes are seeking immediate and effective ways to deal with their most difficult challenges. Whether they are seeking a more fulfilling relationship with their partner or greater satisfaction in their vocational careers, clients can benefit from having a practical framework to navigate stress-filled situations. This usually involves gathering your history and gaining a complete picture of your situation. Relevant assessment questionnaires and the most current research will be provided to assist you in this process. Then, in a collaborative manner, we will discuss your therapy goals and specific strategies to begin trying. I believe that there is more to cultivating wellbeing than having pragmatic solutions to problems or emotional heaviness. It requires transcending any practical goal of relieving symptoms or reducing stress levels and considering the whole person through a holistic lens.

Although I am well-versed in a variety of therapeutic techniques and will integrate different therapy approaches based on clients’ individual needs, I will likely primarily draw from my core training, mentioned above, in most of our work together.
