About Me
Approach
I am passionate about human relationships and sexuality. I take pride in my openness and ability to see the world from your perspective. My experience working in human sexuality has helped me develop a nonjudgmental and person-centered approach. I treat people, not behaviors. This will help us to collaborate and identify goals that are important to you.
I know that the single most important factor in therapy is the relationship between a person and their counselor. The first goal of our work together will be getting to know you and building a warm and trusting relationship. I use humor and curiosity liberally in my work. Contact me for a free phone consultation and we will discuss how I can be of help.
