Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients gain a better understanding of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and guide clients in identifying and challenging limiting and irrational beliefs that contribute to distress.

Integrative

I utilize Integrative therapy as an individualized, holistic approach to therapy that combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic schools of thought depending on the unique needs of a given client.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

I utilize Mindfulness-based therapy to help clients incorporate mindfulness strategies to master present moment awareness, engage in grounding exercises, mind and body awareness, breathing exercises, and self-compassion which reduce stress and increase self-awareness and promote healthy coping skills.

EMDR

I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which is a form of psychotherapy that is designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. It enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences.

Grief Therapy

I utilize Grief therapy in helping clients cope with a wide range of losses, from the death of loved ones to divorce, job loss, and more. Grief is a uniquely individualized experience, and my role as a therapist is to support clients by providing a safe space for clients to explore their emotions and find their path toward healing.
