Personal Statement
I believe that there is an innate tendency within all of us to grow and move toward healthier ways of living. This tendency can become blocked by internal conflicts that lead to unhealthy relationship patterns. I have found that the clients who benefit the most from their therapy are those who feel safe enough to risk exploring these issues. This openness develops in a therapy relationship where the client feels understood, respected and cared about. I form genuine connections with my clients, providing the support they need to look at the obstacles that inhibit them from living the life they want to live. In this way they can begin to “digest” unfinished business and take back control of their lives.
