My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

"Throughout my five-year clinical career, I’ve grown to understand the meaning of the quote, “Mental Health is not a destination, but a process; it’s about how you drive, not where you’re going.” Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I’ve assisted a wide range of clients throughout their mental health journey of self-reflection, self-exploration, and self-awareness. Utilizing a wide range of CBT evidenced-based interventions and techniques during our sessions, we’ll be able to identify the interplay between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. In addition, increasing a deeper comprehension and perspective on how to challenge and manage maladaptive behaviors and symptoms that impact your overall functioning.

He was nice. I'm unsure if he's too demanding about paperwork, rather than you deciding with him.

I have seen a good amount of therapist in my few days of life yet he gave me feedback and things to consider I have not heard before. Also he has a chill vibe about him.

Karl helped me work through current situations that stemmed from past scenarios. I was able to stick up for myself and learn why I reacted to certain triggers. Karl provided a sense of light and comfort throughout the journey and made each session enjoyable yet informative. I couldn't recommend him enough!
