Therapy Approach

As a therapist, I’m committed to creating an environment where my clients feel safe, supported, and understood. I believe this is the most important job as a therapist so that clients can increase their awareness of themselves and their surroundings to promote meaningful change in their lives. I take an integrative approach to provide a tailored treatment to meet the needs of the individual client. Specific techniques and approaches that I utilize include:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • Mindfulness-based Interventions: Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Compassion-Focused Therapy
  • Trauma-focused therapies: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, and trauma-informed mindfulness
  • Client-Centered Therapy
