I know choosing a therapist can be difficult. I like to provide an atmosphere that is collaborative, nurturing, and focused on helping you achieve your goals. I do this using therapeutic techniques that are evidenced-based which means these methods have consistently been shown effective through research. I make every effort to balance kindness with a focus on getting you to where you want to be. This balance results in people feeling understood while creating meaningful change.
Client Focus
Session Format: Individual sessions.
Age Specialty: Adult, Teen
Demographic Expertise: LGBTQ+ clients.
Treatment Approach
- Behavioral
- Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
- Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
- Integrative
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy
Approach Description: My approach is engaging and professional. I can provide more or less structure for you, depending upon your preference. Our work together will always be collaborative and thoughtful. The treatments I provide have decades of research supporting their effectiveness with a wide variety of problems and diagnoses. These techniques are also generally considered among the most efficient as well. While using these techniques, you and I will examine the component parts of your symptoms such as emotions, behaviors, and thoughts. I’ll help you create changes to one or more of these parts to achieve your desired symptom relief. This will be done in a supportive an nurturing fashion because making change can be hard work.
