Practice philosophy
"I focus on a solid academic practice without ever losing sight of the fact that I am dealing with people's lives and the things that are the most important to them. At the end of the day, my client is not a "case;" my client is a person. I believe strongly that it is my job to be a good steward of that client's resources, both financial and emotional. It is imperative that each client feels I am prepared, invested, and ready to advocate for him or her at the highest level. My goal is to help my clients emerge from their personal conflict as intact and healthy as possible. I strive to be a solid touchstone for each one of them as they navigate what is often the most difficult period in their lives."
