Care Philosophy Hello and thanks for inquiring about my counseling services. Please be assured that I aspire to give the highest quality care professionally and ethically. My approach is generally cognitive behavioral; serving individuals, couples and families. I refer to myself as a community counselor, because I work well with physicians, psychologists, school personnel, families, and attorneys when my clients deem it necessary. I focus on making my clients comfortable and establishing trust; in the past, 99% of my new clients returned after the initial session. |
