Philosophy

My approach to therapy can best be described as holistic, integrative and systemic. Working from these perspectives my focus is on treating the whole person within the context of the systems in which each person is a part of. I approach treatment from the perspective that everything is connected and provides us with important information about how we think, feel and act. I practice from the viewpoint that healing and growth takes place when treating the whole person, focusing on practices that address mind, body and soul. The integrative aspect of therapy brings together the affective, behavioral, cognitive, and physiological levels of functioning, as well as the spiritual dimension of life. Working from the foundation of developing a strong therapeutic relationship, my goal is to provide a healing and supportive place for you in which we work together toward hope, meaning, and new possibilities.
