My philosophy and approach to psychotherapy is a partnership between client and clinician. It is the clinician’s responsibility to increase client awareness.  The client must bring a willingness to change and take personal responsibility for their healing. The client and the therapist both must take action: the client must apply new understanding and behavior totheir life; the therapist to provide care at the highest possible standard. In therapy, the client will gain knowledge and the therapist must be knowledgeable. Finally, effort on the client’s part is what makes the bricks on the road to transformation.
