"Though no one can go back and make a brand new start,
 anyone can start now and make a brand new ending."

 My Counseling Approach:

Each of us is a truly unique and precious human being.
As such, no cookie-cutter approach to counseling would ever suffice.
My counseling style is highly individualized and flexible,
tailored to meet my clients' particular needs.

Using an integrative approach
 - blending cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, family systems,
and experiential therapies, as well as psycho-education and alternative modalities -
I aim to help clients break the bondage of the past, find freedom from dysfunctional living,
reclaim self, and achieve the authenticity and abundance we all so deserve.

My counseling approach is highly proactive,
as I co-particpate with clients in finding unique and productive solutions to life's problems.
I encourage my clients to become advocates for themselves,
while enthusiastically advocating for them in the meanwhile.

My primary objective is to help my clients 
move on
- namely, to no longer need my services.
This, I believe, is the purpose of therapy...
To help our clients help themselves. To encourage, empower and equip.
My proactive approach will reflect this philosophy.

People can and do change.
This I firmly believe.
And it is a true privilege to walk alongside my clients
 as they become change agents in their own lives.

I look forward to walking alongside you as you navigate your way toward a more
 authentic and abundant tomorrow
.

In this journey
you are the healer and the healed.




Love After Love

The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was yourself.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

 Derek Walcott
