VirtualMy treatment methods
Integrative
In my practice, I use an integrative approach, blending various therapeutic methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and other modalities like mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. This allows us to tailor our sessions to your unique needs, combining the most effective strategies to support your growth and address your specific challenges.
EMDR
In my practice, I utilize eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) when it is appropriate for addressing trauma and distressing memories. With my training in EMDR, I guide clients through processing these memories in a way that helps reduce their emotional charge and integrate them more effectively. This approach can be particularly beneficial for clients dealing with trauma, allowing them to work through past experiences and alleviate related symptoms as part of their overall healing journey.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In my practice, I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) extensively to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. With over 15 years of experience, I apply CBT techniques to address issues such as anxiety, depression, and stress. This involves working with clients to recognize negative thinking, develop healthier perspectives, and implement practical strategies for managing their challenges. By focusing on actionable changes, CBT helps clients improve their emotional well-being and achieve their personal goals effectively.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
In my practice, I use a person-centered approach to ensure that therapy is tailored to your unique experiences and needs. This method focuses on creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you feel valued and understood. By actively listening and empathizing with your perspective, I help you explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. This approach empowers you to guide the therapy process, fostering self-discovery and growth while we work collaboratively toward your goals.
