Treatment methods
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I have always used Solution Focused as my go to for therapy. It helps the client state what they want to work on and how we can work together to make the change they want. It is goal oriented and driven with a collaborative approach.
Couples Counseling
Meeting the couple where they are at. What they want to work on together and separately, how they support one another and the end goal. It doesn't always have to be staying together.
Attachment-based
When working with clients who are currently struggling with relationship and communication issues, I have recently started using this method to go back to their childhood and learn about their early interactions between caregiver(s) and the development of healthy emotional relationships as an adult.
