Προσεγγίζει κάθε θεραπευτική σχέση με σεβασμό στη μοναδικότητα του ανθρώπου που έχει απέναντί του. Δεν πιστεύει στις έτοιμες λύσεις ή στις γενικές συμβουλές, αλλά στη δύναμη της συνεργασίας, του διαλόγου και της κοινής διερεύνησης καθώς η ψυχοθεραπεία για εκείνον είναι μια ουσιαστική συνάντηση δύο ανθρώπων. Πιστεύει ότι κάθε άνθρωπος έχει τη δική του μοναδική ιστορία και ότι η κατανόηση των δυσκολιών του χρειάζεται να γίνεται μέσα από τις εμπειρίες, τις σχέσεις και το πλαίσιο της ζωής του.

Στόχος του είναι να δημιουργήσει έναν χώρο όπου ο άνθρωπος θα μπορεί να εκφραστεί με ειλικρίνεια, να κατανοήσει βαθύτερα τον εαυτό του και να κάνει ουσιαστικά βήματα προς την αλλαγή που επιθυμεί.
