VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a therapy that I utilize that helps clients change negative thoughts and behaviors that cause distress. It offers tools to challenge unhelpful beliefs, leading to better emotional well-being. It is based on evidence and helps people have healthier ways of thinking and coping.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution Focused Brief Therapy is a therapeutic approach I employ designed to assist clients in envisioning solutions to their problems, rather than focusing on the issues that cause distress. I witness how it helps individuals to identify their strengths and abilities and utilize them to generate alternative solutions. SFT is based on evidence and it encourages clients to find their own solutions to the problems that they are facing.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is an effective therapeutic approach that fosters resilience and adaptability. It empowers individuals to embrace their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment, while also setting goals aligned with personal values. This therapy treatment method helps improve self-awareness and personal growth.
