Philosophy:
My approach is a humanistic one, where I look at the person as a whole. I take into consideration the persons life story as well as their current physical, personal and social situations. I believe that we all have a story to tell and that our life experiences serve as a template for how we view things and respond to situations. With increased awareness of ourselves and our partners (if applicable) we can then make more effective choices that lead to a deeper level of understanding of ourselves and others. This in turn leads to increased happiness and satisfaction with the relationships we have in our life.
