My approach to therapy

Dr. Diallo is certified in a variety of clinical approaches including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Parent-Child Psychotherapy (CPP), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Seeking Safety. She is trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT), and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT).

Dr. Diallo has extensive experience in providing trauma-informed therapy to individuals who have experienced trauma, including intimate partner violence, and family and community violence; individuals with suicidal thoughts and other types of self-harming behaviors; and those who suffer from Depression, PTSD, Anxiety, and personality disorder.

What you can expect from me

Dr. Diallo uses a holistic approach, drawn from a system theory that acknowledges the importance of understanding the role of interdependence, and how that can positively or negatively impact the well-being of individuals and families. Dr. Diallo understands the value of a collaborative method to support her patients in reaching their goals. Validation, Empowerment, and Self-determination are some of the foundations of her work.
