I believe that each person is unique and should be treated with respect, acceptance, and honesty. My theoretical approach is called Theoretical Integrationism, which simply means that I base therapy on several different models that I believe to be the most accurate and helpful. Specifically, I hold to Person-Centered, Cognitive-Behavioral, and Psychodynamic approaches. As a person-centered therapist, I work to help people accept themselves as the unique, valuable persons they are. I see my role as collaborative, working alongside my clients to help them become more satisfied with their selves and with their lives. I also believe that our thoughts, feelings, and behavior are all interconnected. Changing one can change the other, leading to more fulfilling outcomes. I help people learn new, more effective behaviors, often in the form of coping and relaxation skills, and develop healthy, productive ways of thinking. It is often helpful to explore the connections between one's early relationships and one's current relationships, including the therapeutic relationship. Insight into these connections can help one build healthier, more fulfilling relationships, as well as a deeper understanding and acceptance of self.
