My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

With the use of Acceptance and Commitment therapy, together we will take meaningful steps to develop positive change, improve your life satisfaction, and enhance your emotional well-being.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Many clients benefit from the tools offered with CBT therapy to decrease anxiety, depression, and adjust to life difficult transitions. CBT skills can help allow you to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. CBT knowledge and tools can change the way we think and create meaningful changes in your life.

Using a strengths based approach, we will work to improve your self-esteem, confidence, and strengthen your support network.
