My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

In our work together, I use CBT as a practical, evidence-based approach to help you understand the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. The goal is to shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior that may be keeping you stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, or feeling low.

Trauma Informed Care

This approach means I recognize that many people have experienced overwhelming, painful, or confusing life events that can affect how we think, feel, relate, and cope.

Eclectic

This approach means I draw from a variety of evidenced-based methods to best support your unique needs, goals, and preferences. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all model, I tailor our sessions based on what will be most helpful for you.
