About

By being patient and validating my clients it makes them feel that what they say and feel matters. I am very compassionate and never judge. Never minimize my clients issues because to them they are serious and important. I always listen which is the most important part of my job and always repeat back to make sure what they say helps them hear themselves. Most importantly I help them become aware and recognize their issues.

I encourage my clients to answer their own questions which in turn helps them figure out what is right or wrong for them.

I also encourage writing their issues down, possible solutions and the possible effects from their solutions. At my first session I give them a journal to write in and it becomes part of the session.

In summary, teach them how to reflect on what they say and mean for better self-awareness.

My passion and commitment is very apparent with my clients which makes them feel very much at ease. My goal is alleviating my clients worries and the despair they feel at first when they begin .

Sometimes my clients feel counseling is not going to work but with just the first visit with me they always feel better and their situation becomes more manageable...they feel hope! They leave with a big smile looking forward to the next visit.

Helping them reach their goals is the most rewarding!
