My Approach to Helping

Therapy is a unique process that succeeds on the power of the relationship between the therapist and clients. Whether you are seeking individual counseling or relationship counseling, our goal at WellPath Counseling, is to build a partnership in which you feel safe and supported enough to make sense of challenging events or issues. Utilizing an interdisciplinary approach that is rooted in attachment and emotionally-focused modalities, we seek to create an authentic relationship that supports dialogue and discovery where you feel you are an active participant in your own growth and the growth of your relationships.
