I work with individuals and couples, teens and children with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues.I know that clients want to see progress even though it may be incremental. Therefore, I provide for a collaborative structure, plan and goals that allow clients to see progress every week. I provide resources, homework, and education to my clients to help them in the process of self-discovery and addressing relationship issues. I help clients to find solutions to solvable problems and develop coping skills to address issues that are harder to solve.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I use a collaborative and non judgmental approach to help individuals address unproductive/negative thoughts, improve coping and communication skills, improve self-acceptance and gain valuable insights. This approach can help with a wide range of issues such as depression, anxiety, OCD, anger/stress management, relationship issues, trauma and more.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Some of the specific approaches that I use are the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), SYMBIS premarital assessments, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Collaborative Problem Solving (for parents and kids) and Brainspotting. These research based approaches have been proven to help clients in meaningful ways.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
While I work with a wide variety of clietns and needs my specialty is relationships of all varieties. I feel that attachments and relationship dynamics play a role in almost every aspect of life.
