Most importantly, my focus is to help utilize one’s own strengths and coping skills to overcome your personal challenges and struggles, while providing therapeutic support. I value the importance of respect for the clients own religious beliefs and value system. I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for you to explore your goals, to reduce stress, and gain self insight. My approach is one of respect, acceptance, encouragement, and support. Together we nurture one’s own personal growth and empowerment.
