My Approach

My intent is to provide individuals and couples with a safe, nurturing environment that invites increased self-awareness and personal growth by offering resources that promote well-being, self-empowerment and connection with yourself and others.

​

I am impressed by the resilience and strength demonstrated by the individuals and couples I work with, and I trust in their innate ability to meet those challenges they may be facing.  

 

Motivation and courage to make desired changes is fostered in the context of safe and nurturing relationships.  I provide a counseling environment of this nature through:

​

-listening compassionately

-providing unconditional acceptance

-validating clients’ experiences and perspectives

-asking questions that help to elicit self-awareness and insight

-focusing on strengths and successes

-encouraging compassion for self and others

-maintaining a kind and calm disposition

-inviting others to trust their own intuition

-respecting the self-determination of each individual
