What is your style/approach to therapy?
My approach is very person-centered. I identify with many different modalities to cater to my clients' individuality.
How do you determine therapy goals with clients? What does that process look like?
I collaborate with my clients about what changes they would like to see in their lives and then together we decide on goals to take the steps in that direction.
