My treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

I specialize in Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), a therapeutic approach that focuses on identifying and building upon an individual's strengths and resources to create positive change. In SFBT, we work collaboratively to set clear goals and develop practical strategies to achieve them. This approach emphasizes finding solutions rather than dwelling on problems, and it can be highly effective in helping individuals make meaningful progress in a relatively short period of time. I am dedicated to utilizing my expertise in SFBT to support you in finding the solutions you seek and creating positive change in your life.

Trauma-Focused CBT

TF-CBT's combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy and trauma-focused interventions. I provide individuals with the tools and support you need to process traumatic experiences, manage distressing symptoms, and develop healthier coping strategies.
