My goal as a therapist is to help you identify clear goals so that when you put in effort, you know exactly what you're working toward. It's easy to say you tried, but harder to define what you're actually attempting to do. I help you clarify the path forward so your efforts lead somewhere meaningful.

I actively approach therapy. I tend to give guidance, suggest techniques to make the way to success smoother, and offer “homework” to practice those techniques between sessions. After all, change is most helpful when it happens both in and out of the therapy room. (Don’t worry; this “homework” doesn’t lead to grades or tests!)
