Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Solution-focused
I primarily work from a client-centered approach and, when appropriate, will utilize Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy perspectives and tools to assist and re-direct patients towards their goals. My aim is to provide an empathic understanding of, acceptance of, and respect for my client’s individual perceptions and experiences. I work to clarify my client’s ideas and thoughts which allows them to see themselves more clearly and come into closer touch with their real goals, dreams, feelings, and behaviors.

Bubble baths and funny TV shows.
