VirtualMy treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I use Person-Centered Therapy to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel genuinely heard and accepted. My approach emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity to support clients in exploring their experiences and finding their own solutions at their own pace.
Strength-Based
I integrate Strengths-Based Therapy by helping clients identify and build on their existing strengths and resilience. I focus on empowering clients, highlighting what’s working well, and using those assets to navigate challenges and promote growth.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have extensive experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and use it regularly to help clients identify and reframe negative thought patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. I tailor CBT techniques—like cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, and thought tracking—to meet each client’s specific needs and goals.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to help clients identify clear goals and build on past successes. By focusing on solutions rather than problems, I support clients in developing practical steps and envisioning a preferred future, often leading to quick and meaningful progress.
