I practice therapy using a cognitive-behavioral approach to treatment with a positive and supportive focus. This addresses problems based upon the link between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The benefit of this is that we can change the way we think, 

feel, and act even if the situation does not change.

The therapeutic relationship is the core of change. Your experiences, emotions, perspectives, and needs are unique to you. They are valid and important. Ultimately, I sit and actively and objectively listen to you to work with you in a way that is useful and productive. We will set goals together and work together to help you in a way that is helpful to you to improve your quality of life.

Sometimes, people come in knowing exactly what they are looking for (i.e. - 'to stop crying' or 'to not worry so much'). For other, it can be very confusing. Whatever your 'why' is, we work together to determine the goals and work towards them.
