Treatment Approach

My approach to therapy is supportive, interactive, and client centered with the use of mindfulness and cognitive behavioral treatment techniques. My work is informed by Psychodynamic Theory which posits that the present is informed by the past, and until we explore, acknowledge, and accept our past and present with resilience, we may encounter barriers to moving forward. I welcome new clients to take this journey, with me as your guide, to new ways of functioning and a deeper level of understanding yourself.
