I provide a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental environment that allows my clients the opportunity to express themselves and feel understood. I generally use a cognitive behavioral therapy approach while incorporating other evidenced-based treatments. Cognitive behavioral therapy is aimed at exploring thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We identify how automatic thoughts impact emotions and influence actions. We will approach treatment from different directions by challenging unhelpful thoughts, learning new skills to manage difficult feelings, and practicing different coping, behavioral, and interpersonal strategies to promote more desirable outcomes and long term change. Depending on your needs and preferences, I also use other treatment approaches such as, but not limited to, acceptance and commitment therapy, person-centered, attachment, strength, solution or emotion focused, cognitive processing therapy, prolonged exposure, other exposure based, dialectical behavioral therapy, skills training in affective and interpersonal training, social skills training, motivational interviewing, relapse prevention, mindfulness-based practices and psychoeducation.

​

Again, I commend you on your courage, strength, and willingness to explore these experiences and find answers.

I am committed to working in a collaborative approach, carefully listening, helping you find the answers and solutions you have been looking for and starting this journey with you.
