I believe personal counseling can enrich your life in a number of ways. It can help you develop new insights into your emotional, interpersonal, or career difficulties and explore new ways of overcoming them. Together, we will explore the family and social experiences that have shaped your personality, self-esteem, and sense of self. Counseling will sharpen your understanding of your relationships with important people in your life and will allow you to experience new ways of being with others. We will also address the existential issues you might be facing.

My theoretical orientation is interpersonal. Essentially, that means that my focus is on assisting clients in mobilizing their resources and strengths to remove obstacles to meaningful and joyful ways of being and relating. I see psychotherapy as an engaging dialogue between two people, an   
interpersonal experience that promotes individuals' empathic understanding of themselves and others.
