Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we explore unhelpful thinking patterns and beliefs that may be contributing to anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, or other challenges. Once these patterns are identified, we work collaboratively to challenge them, develop healthier perspectives, and practice practical coping strategies that support meaningful change. My approach to CBT is collaborative, individualized, and goal-oriented. Rather than applying techniques in a one-size-fits-all way, I tailor interventions to each client's unique experiences, strengths, and goals. I integrate CBT with a compassionate, trauma-informed perspective, helping clients build self-awareness, strengthen emotional regulation, improve problem-solving skills, and develop lasting tools they can use outside of therapy. My goal is to help clients feel empowered to make meaningful changes that improve their overall well-being and quality of life.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients develop practical skills for managing intense emotions, reducing distress, and improving relationships. My approach emphasizes balancing acceptance of your current experiences with making meaningful changes that support your goals. Together, we work to identify emotional and behavioral patterns, build effective coping strategies, and strengthen your ability to respond to life's challenges in healthier ways. I tailor DBT interventions to each client's unique needs, integrating skills such as mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness into our work. I provide a supportive, collaborative environment where clients can practice these skills, increase self-awareness, and build confidence in navigating difficult emotions and relationships. My goal is to help clients develop lasting skills that promote emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and an improved quality of life.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

I use a Solution-Focused approach to help clients identify their strengths, clarify their goals, and build on what is already working in their lives. Rather than focusing solely on problems, I help clients recognize their existing abilities, resources, and past successes so they can create practical, achievable steps toward change.

Trauma-Focused CBT

I use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to help clients process traumatic experiences in a safe, structured, and supportive environment. My approach is trauma-informed, recognizing the impact trauma can have on thoughts, emotions, behaviors, relationships, and overall well-being. I work collaboratively with clients to build a strong foundation of trust before gradually exploring traumatic experiences at a pace that feels appropriate and manageable. Using TF-CBT principles, I help clients develop healthy coping skills, improve emotional regulation, identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts related to trauma, and process difficult memories in ways that reduce their emotional impact. When working with children and adolescents, I also involve caregivers when appropriate to strengthen support, improve communication, and reinforce skills outside of sessions. My goal is to help clients build resilience, increase their sense of safety and self-worth, and move toward healing while feeling supported throughout the therapeutic process.
