Approach ⟶
Laying the foundation for a child’s future begins with nurturing their emotional and mental well-being from a young age. I view each individual as in the process of becoming, with unconditional self-worth, no matter their condition. My approach centers on the unique potential within each individual. I support the youth in uncovering and nurturing that potential, reinforcing who they truly are, and encourage actions that reflect their strengths and aspirations.
Through building a therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy, acceptance, congruence and trust, individuals can move from rigidity to openness, allowing answers to emerge from within.
