Virtual & in-personMy treatment methods
Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing is a method I prefer to use because it focuses on my client's personal growth and change in their lives. Motivational Interviewing uses the principles of empathy and understanding, without judgement, which I believe is the hallmark of empowerment.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral therapy can help interrupt negative thoughts and replace them with realistic thoughts to help improve one's outlook on life. I employed this technique with session geared to help my clients see the world in a more realistic non-threatening manner. A technique that has proven to be successful among my clients is known as "Evaluating the evidence".
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
DBT therapy is my go-to for my clients living with personality disorders and PTSD. I use this method to help the client tone down some of their intense emotional stress and employ better coping skills.
Trauma Informed Care
Trauma informed care incorporates some key principles, such as safety, trustworthiness, choice, collaboration, and empowerment, which are very important to living a healthy lifestyle regardless of the individual's diagnosis. My approach is one of transparency, trust, and collaboration to assist my patients to wellness.
