Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
My experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has created the ability for clients to gain a better understanding of the behavior and motivation of others, using problem-solving skills to cope with difficult situations, and learning to develop a greater sense of confidence in one's own ability. In addition, my extensive training assists clients to face fears instead of avoiding them, during acute anxiety episode to calms one's mind and relax one's body.
