She uses a multitude of modalities including by not limited to Psychotherapy, Eye Movement Desensitization Processioning (EMDR), DBT, CDT and many more. Her specialties include individuals who present with difficulties related to trauma behaviors (such as PTSD, adjustment disorders, marriage difficulties, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, bipolar, divorce adjustment, and stress related illnesses.
