My Approach to Helping

I recognize the importance of developing good rapport with my clients in order to form a pathway to healing. My clients must trust me in order for me to help them with their pain, disappointments, and multitude of losses as part of their journey to healing. I utilize unconditional positive regard, active listening, along with cognitive-behavioral-spiritual approaches as mechanisms to assist in this engagement process in helping my clients reach their goals and objectives and assist them in having the highest possible quality of life in their vision.
