Areas of Therapeutic Focus

Values Guiding My Practice

  • Humanity, humility, and hope

  • Courage to face reality rather than avoid it

  • Creativity, curiosity, humor, and perspective

  • Respect for the existential core of each person

  • Cultural responsiveness, flexibility, and awareness of social context
