My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

In my practice as a therapist, I implement Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) by helping clients identify and challenge their negative thought patterns and the behaviors that reinforce them.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

In my practice as a therapist, I implement Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) by helping clients develop skills to manage intense emotions, improve interpersonal relationships, and reduce self-destructive behaviors. Throughout treatment, I balance validation and acceptance with constructive change, creating a therapeutic environment where clients feel understood while also being challenged to make meaningful, lasting changes.
