My style is very straightforward. We will roll up our sleeves and get to work. I spend as little time as possible talking as I prefer to hear clients' stories from the client and learn their dreams and goals for themselves and their families. I try and help them self-determine how they dynamically fit into the family structure. I tend to lean away from coddling and try to identify options and choices that clients may not be able to see while they are in the midst of a dilemma or crisis. I am ...
