My counseling style is warm and interactive. My philosophy is simple take me down a road you would like to go to address your concerns. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy, client centered, adlerian therapy, dream analysis and rational emotive counseling.
