My focus as a counselor is creating a safe, nonjudgmental space in which clients can grow. Viktor Frankl Once Said “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” My goal is working in a collaborative effort and help clients achieve this power to be able to grow. I believe in meeting the client where you are at in your journey. I focus on using a warm and empathic approach and I focus on building a strong rapport that supports change.
