My Approach

 

I offer an integrative approach to therapy bringing tools and techniques from a variety of modalities, including CBT, solutions-focused, acceptance and commitment therapy. I encourage self-reflection, homework, and openness to experimenting with different perspective.  You are the drive of your success.

 

I specialize in the most common mental health problems I treat, but not limited to Mood, Anxiety, Depression, Family and Group therapy. I strive to implement psychotherapeutic methods during each appointment.  My approach is informal.  This includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), behavior therapy, mindfulness, Psychodynamic Therapy (talk therapy), and person-center, evidence-based therapies in my treatments.

​

My goals:

My main goal is to hold a warm open environment to explore what life might be like if we would change some of the areas in your life keeping you stuck.  We will work together to find tools that work for you.  All you need is an open mind to change.  My goals is to empower individuals, equipping them with the necessary tools and coping strategies to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience.
