I believe in you! It would be an honor to meet you and I look forward to our relationship together. My theoretical orientation can be described as person-centered therapy where I as the therapist provide an accepting and non-judgmental environment for each client. Each person I meet with has within himself or herself vast resources for self-understanding, for altering his or her self-concept, attitudes and self-directed behavior. These resources can be tapped when a definable climate of therapeutic rapport is developed. I look forward to hearing from you so that we may start the journey together! :)
