My Therapy Approach

Every therapist does things differently. It's why finding a therapist can feel a lot like dating. Sometimes you click, and other times it's just not the right fit.  This is what you can expect when we work together.

This one I created myself. I call it my Rogers triad. It's a little silly, but it works!

​​​Carl Rogers = Humanistic psychologist and founder of person-centered therapy 

​

​

Fred Rogers = Mr. Rogers, American television host, author, producer, and Presbyterian minister

​

​

Steve Rogers = Captain America, Marvel superhero and Avenger

"My Therapy Style" image created by Dr. Missy Kleinz. There is a triangle with the word "Rogers" in the center. On each point there is a name: Fred, Carl, and Steve.
