Orientation & Approach
|
I approach therapy with a psychodynamic orientation in which I
provide brief and long term services as indicated. Psychotherapy is a complex
process that must vary with each client. A safe, trusting, and confidential relationship
must be established. Insight, understanding and action lead to meaningful change.
