My Approach to Helping
My approach to helping my patients is to be empathic and understanding. I have lived experiences in personal recovery which gives me insight on how to help and understand the patients I work with and understand the individual with their clinical needs. I then use a collaborative approach to developing a flexible treatment plan that can be adjusted as the patient makes progress or their needs change. My clinical style utilizes positive psychology and psychoeducational interventions and I welcome family or spousal participation in the patient's care.
