Therapeutic Style:

I like to apply a systematic approach in therapy. This means I look for the impact of the issues in different areas in a person’s life, their relationship with others, and with their environment. I value the collaboration as well as the openness in communication through the process. I view therapy as a journey, and I am the tour guide for whoever is taking the trip. As a guide, I provide information and professional feedback to those who want to travel but the client is the one who decides the destination.

Supervision Style:

My goal for supervision is to help supervisees to develop their style of therapy and become comfortable with the identity. An area that I focus on in supervision is the self as the therapist. I believe that exploring our own values and biases will help us to be more efficient as providers to people we work with.
