Three words that describe my style are person-centered, warm, caring. My approach: 1) I never pathologize the client. 2) I look for the good, and I always find it. 3) I look for your strengths and competencies. 4) I work alongside you. You know yourself best. 5) We might even laugh in our sessions. I was a former divorced, single parent and I've been in a blended family now for 34 years. I know blended families, divorce, parenting, women's issues. I'm as human as you are; I've had my own counseling in the past. I listen and I am not going to judge you. As a trauma therapist, I respect how the brain is marvelously hardwired to move in the direction of healing, and I never pathologize a client's attempts at survival and coping. Welcome!
