I see counseling as a collaborative process in which you, the client, and I, the counselor, having come to understand and trust one another, work as a team to explore and define present problem situations, develop future goals for an improved life, and collaborate toward realizing those goals. I work from an evidence-based multi-theoretical perspective, as indicated for each client’s specific presenting concerns and goals. I most frequently employ techniques from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Adlerian Therapy.
