Currently I am meeting with clients by videotherapy or phone consultation.
A caring and compassionate therapist is a crucial part of any therapy. I use empathy, humor, and flexibility to help my clients “tell their unique story”. My educational and professional background has afforded me the experience of working with a vast array of clients, and has allowed me to recognize the importance of flexibility, adaptability, and life experience.
I have received extensive training in individual and family psychotherapy, substance abuse assessment and treatment, as well as group approaches. My legal education provides me with important insights related to ethics and boundaries. I utilize an integrative theoretical approach to working with clients.
