You can always expect unconditional support positive regard, active listening, & honesty.
I believe that my greatest strengths include: communication, humor, motivator.
I tailor my therapeutic approach to each individual and use a variety of treatment modalities. CBT focuses on reducing symptoms of various mental health conditions. CBT focuses on challenging and changing cognitive distortions, such as thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes and their behaviors in order to improve how one regulates emotions. I teach coping strategies that target specific problems. I also use positive psychology, bibliotherapy, and ACT as well as person centered and motivational therapy.
I feel that life has many silver linings, even in the face of heartache, death or despair. Sometimes one needs a professional therapist to shed light on this, and awaken the positives in ones life.
