“The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.”
Bob Moawad
My approach to therapy heavily favors the behavioral model and a realistic approach. I believe everyone is capable of accomplishing what they want, if they are able to push themselves hard enough. Therapy takes time and these goals can be accomplished, but it is not always comfortable. I love helping people challenge themselves and celebrate the small victories they have on the way to accomplishing their overall goals. I work to be honest and direct with my clients, which can put some people in a defense mode. We will however, work to create meaningful solutions to problems and struggles they face on a daily basis.
