My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
How CBT Helps: Identifying Negative Thought Patterns: Helps clients recognize and challenge irrational fears and anxious thoughts. Cognitive Restructuring: Reframes distorted thinking to create healthier, more balanced perspectives. Exposure Therapy: Gradual exposure to feared situations to reduce avoidance behaviors. Behavioral Activation: Encourages engagement in positive activities to break the cycle of anxiety. Relaxation Techniques: Includes mindfulness, deep breathing, and grounding exercises to manage stress responses.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
Identify Emotional Patterns (Recognize emotions shaping behaviors and relationships) Restructure Negative Interaction Cycles (Address unhealthy relational dynamics) Increase Emotional Awareness & Regulation (Encourage expression of vulnerable emotions) Foster Secure Attachment & Connection (Strengthen emotional bonds and self-compassion) Consolidate Changes & Strengthen New Patterns (Reinforce healthier emotional responses)
