My ideal client has the potential to recognize that they have the answer lies within and that I, as a therapist, am there to help them find the answer within themselves. All of us seeking therapy have that potential within ourselves. I am trained and skilled in working with all ages. I have experience in working with clients with different cultural backgrounds, especially LGBT clients.
I am trained and experienced in working with many different problems, including, depression, anxiety, ADHD, relationships, child behavior problems, communication problems between couples, attachment problems and many others.
In addition to my primary experience, I have experience in working with those in the LGBT community and gay men living with HIV/AIDS.
