Therapy Approach

My approach to therapy is integrative, drawing from systemic, humanistic, behavioral and cognitive approaches. I believe that a person's environment plays a direct role in how they think, feel and view the world. I also believe that everyone has the ability to be the best version of themselves. Sometimes, they just need a little help. Above all, building a positive relationship with those I work with is the most important aspect of my treatment.

 

Supervision Approach

My approach to supervision is founded in developmental models of supervision. Attention to the supervisory relationship and supervisory roles is critical to these approaches, requiring the supervisor to be intentional, proactive and flexible. Supervision interventions are tailored to supervisees’ developmental, cognitive and conceptual levels, as well as the supervisees’ motivation, skills and personal attributes, while ensuring the needs of the client or clients are met.
