I help clients by listening intently to what a client is struggling with in life. I try to formulate a complex understanding of what the problem is and then consider how best to address it. Once we have collaboratively identified the problem, we begin to strategize ideas for how to see change that is possible and sustainable for the client. There are many ways to find an adequate solution to a problem, but the point of working with a psychologist is to have these ideas tailored to your personality.
