My theoretical framework stems from Strength, Empowerment, and Psycho- Dynamic. I integrate a variety of techniques into the therapeutic process. Therapy is a collaborative and creative process that emphasizes ones internal resilience and innate ability to productively manage life's challenges. The therapeutic experience should encourage one to live a more satisfying and meaningful life.
