My Approach to Helping

Healing, change and authenticity come through the integration of psychological, emotional, spiritual, social, professional, cultural, biological, moral and ethical aspects of life. I provide counseling for individuals starting from an Existential-Humanistic framework, which provides a means to more deeply understand who you are and how you experience life through the themes of meaning, belonging, freedom, responsibility, mortality, power and identity. Existential-humanistic therapy starts from a place of givens - what are the universal aspects of being human? - and then attempts to understand your individual life within them. Therapy is client-centered and client-led, meaning I do not approach you with a scripted or formulaic methodology. While we will always have an established yet evolving set of goals for therapy, I do not drive sessions with my own agenda. This is your therapy and you will lead us where you are ready to go. My job is to empower you to do so.
