About
Listening and empathy are critical elements to creating and maintaining a trusting, safe and therapeutic relationship. This is first and foremost how I treat and hold my clients. Within this environment I work with the client to tease out and understand their issues and recognize behaviors and patterns. I assist them in accepting who they are and I collaborate with the client to determine their desires as well as find their own answers. I use a psychodynamic frame, but utilize an eclectic approach to suit the client's comfort level.
