I use Cognitive Behavioral approaches, supportive psychotherapy, and many evidence based practices that have developed over the last several years. Personal centered themes are also important.
Improved quality of life, reduction of symptoms, and resolution of problems. I check in on symptoms and progress each session to session. I always address cognitions, behaviors and feelings.
