About me as a therapist

I am committed to offering a place where you can talk openly and frankly. You can rest assured that what you tell me in the therapy setting will not go out of the counselling room, except in special cases, such as for safety reasons. I take a holistic view on your presenting problems and construct an integrative and tailored-made approach for you based on scientific research and my clinical experiences. 

My strength is that I am a really good listener, and I am good at helping you find your strengths. I can flexibly adjust my style to fit your situation and needs. I ask a lot of questions to know you better. I make sure I have a good understanding of your concerns and desire for resolution and discuss what therapy can do for you based on the shared understanding.

About my therapy sessions

I use a variety of therapeutic methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness and Morita Therapy.
No matter what therapeutic method we would use, the most crucial is a good working relationship between you and the therapist.  The first session will be a good opportunity for both to see if we could be a good match for the work and if you would like to work with me.  I appreciate honesty and I would welcome and encourage any concerns to be discussed openly in our sessions.  Discussing any concerns honestly and openly, will enable you to make the best use of, and gain most benefit from your counselling sessions.
