Professional statement
Most people seek therapy for help in improving their well being.Since humans are complex, people bring a wide range of issues that require attention. For those who are motivated to gain insight as to how to change their current lives, therapy can be effective. The question then arises as to how to choose a therapist.
Through my formal education in psychology, therapy practice and wide range of life experiences, I offer a non-judgmental opportunity for clients to reflect on deepening their self-knowledge as well as support in changing behavior. As the sage once said. “If I am not for myself, who will be for me?”, “If I am only for myself, what am I?”, and “If not now, when?” And as the Dalai Lama has written, “The wiser course is to think of others also when pursuing our own happiness. In my practice I emphasize the importance of empathy and compassion toward self and others. It is the utmost importance that my clients feel as if they are deeply understood
