My approach to therapy

Deirys utilizes a holistic approach with modalities such as, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic, mindfulness techniques, strength based, trauma informed. Deirys loves to travel and through her travel experience she has learned to be culturally sensitive and competent.

What you can expect from me

One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. The thought of therapy can be scary for a lot of people. As a clinician Deirys tries to keep this in mind and occasionally adds a dash of humor to the sessions. Deirys believes that therapy does not need to be boring, painful or a one-sided conversation. She wants to help you achieve the life changes that you are looking for, while enjoying the process of therapy as much as possible.
