What should a new client know about working with you?

The philosophy that guides me in working with clients is a strong core belief in respect for each persons unique culture, and background. There are no cookie cutter therapeutic interventions that work on all clients, with the exception of the development of a strong therapeutic relationship between client and therapist. I believe that therapy needs to be meaningful and personal and tailored for each person.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

The first session is an intake session, which helps gather information, diagnosis and a treatment plan. It is also a session for the client and therapist to decide if they are a good fit.
