He aims to create a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through what feels overwhelming and start making small, manageable changes. Si writes plainly and listens closely to what each person brings to a session.
He trained in social work, earning a Master of Social Work (MSW) after a bachelor of science in psychology.

Si favors approaches that highlight a person's strengths and personal meaning. He uses client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral ideas, and existential perspectives to help people notice patterns, test unhelpful thoughts, and find what matters most. He also integrates mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques to support change.
Sessions may include guided relaxation, role-play, journaling, or creative exercises when helpful. Si describes his role as a curious partner who challenges with respect and offers education when useful. His goal is to help people build clearer self-understanding and practical steps toward a more manageable life.
