"Family therapy deals with the relationships between people. This means that even when a client is present in the therapeutic space, we explore their interactions with the people most important to them. I believe that relationships with significant others are at the heart of the experience of happiness and health. And at the core of а successful therapeutic process is building a relationship of trust with the client. Respecting people's differences, ensuring confidentiality, and respecting the client's individual suffering and experience are core principles in my work."
