How I Help Clients Succeed
I help clients succeed by assisting them to make connections between their present behavior and their past experiences.
I teach clients to show compassion and love to themselves first and to assert themselves as the authors of their own stories.
I use humor as a therapeutic tool as a way to instill hope, recognizing that in every crisis there is opportunity.
I challenge clients to question their current thinking patterns and to analyze their current behaviors. We assess whether those thoughts and behaviors are productive or counterproductive to what they plan to achieve and/or obtain.
