Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Application of CBT in my practice. has helped scores of individuals overcome recurring and negative thoughts and control their symptoms. We'll utilize CBT to understand how your ideas, feelings, and behaviors affect your actions. We'll then apply that understanding to unlearn negative thoughts and behaviors and learn to adopt healthier thinking patterns and habits, allowing you to live a less anxious and stressful life
Christian Counseling
I have been incorporating Christian counseling in my practice by integrating Christian beliefs and principles with traditional techniques in a compassionate way. It has helped in alleviating psychological, and emotional distress and dysfunction in individuals seeking therapy.
