I work as an integrative psychotherapist. Each individual I work with is unique and I believe there is not a one size fits all approach. I meet the individual where they are in the present moment and work from there. I believe that the ability to reach a sense of calm, satisfaction, and peace within oneself is attainable.
I am experienced in person centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy. The underlying principles of the person centered approach are based on a foundation of empathy, unconditional positive regard and authenticity. This approach is very effective with many individuals. There are times when individuals thrive on a cognitive based approach, for example, when they struggle with negative thinking patterns. It is with these individuals that I incorporate dialectical behavioral and cognitive behavioral skills with much success.
Clients can expect to take a way a better understanding of themselves and where their thought processes and behaviors stem from.
