I approach mental health and personality from a holistic perspective. I consider multiple variables when working with clients including mental health, medical history, nutrition, exercise and environment. I would describe my theoretical orientation as eclectic. Eclecticism incorporates therapies from a number of different sources ranging from cognitive-behavioral approaches to alternative treatments such as mindfulness training and meditation. The therapeutic techniques that I use vary from client to client because what works for one person may not work for another. Moreover, I often use more than one therapeutic method depending on my clients' needs. Exercise has been shown to increase mood, self-image and self-confidence in individuals diagnosed with mental health issues. In addition to traditional mental health counseling, I incorporate exercise prescription into my treatment plans (as needed) and work directly with my clients to implement and manage their exercise regimens. I strongly believe that clients are the true experts in their lives and that counseling, at a basic level, is a solution focused partnership. As such, I strive to create an unconditional, non-judgmental environment in which individuals can freely and honestly explore and resolve conflicts and problems.
