Therapeutic Orientation:
My philosophy follows the idea that people are sometimes led from the paths that would allow
them to live the best life possible for them. My goal is to help individuals find ways to accept
those events, incorporate them into their lives and then progress onward by taking their next
step. I approach each client with one question in mind: How may I help this person to take the
next step to improve his or her life? Everything follows from the answer to that question.
