Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I’ve been using CBT in my practice for the past 30 years. It’s helped dozens of clients challenge reoccurring thoughts and manage their anxiety. We’ll use CBT to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. We’ll then use that knowledge to change your thinking patterns, which will help you lead a less anxious and stressed life.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I help individuals accept and commit to their values in the face of negative thoughts, feelings, or circumstances.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
Its main goals are to teach individuals how to live in the moment, develop healthy ways to cope with stress, regulate their emotions, and improve their relationships with others.
