Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques during virtual visits to help patients manage anxiety, depression, and related emotional challenges. I help patients identify negative thought patterns, understand the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and develop healthier coping strategies. I also provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management, including prescribing medications when clinically appropriate. Treatment plans are individualized to each patient's symptoms, needs, and goals, with the aim of reducing symptoms, improving daily functioning, and supporting long-term emotional well-being.
