I view therapy from a holistic lens, encouraging clients to explore their holistic self (mental, spiritual, sexual, physical, etc.) and how those various pieces impact our view of self, the world, and our lived experiences. Finding meaning in experiences, as well as curating curiosity and compassion towards the self are inherent to my therapeutic process. To summarize my approach to treatment from Carl Rogers: "A person is a fluid process, not a fixed & static entity; a flowing river of change, not a block of solid material; a continually changing constellation of potentialities, not a fixed quantity of traits."

The type of client that I am most interested in working with is someone who is eager and prepared to make positive changes in their life. They should be willing to put in the necessary effort to achieve their goals. I appreciate individuals who are in touch with their true motivations and believe that they have the ability to accomplish more than their present situation may indicate.
