My approach to treatment is based in the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) model. I work to help you identify feelings that have an impact on your behaviors and attitudes. By identifying this string of thoughts, feelings and actions, we can work together to make changes that bring about positive outcomes in your life. At times, making changes can be difficult. Techniques of Motivational Interviewing are useful when struggling to determine what changes would be the most beneficial. I approach every session with a trauma informed attitude so events that leave an emotional imprint can be effectively explored.
CBT successfully treats: depression, anxiety, mood disorders and life adjustments; anger management, general feeling of sadness and irritability; recovery from trauma, grief and loss; relationship needs; adoption and foster care related needs; parenting support. I provide comprehensive, neuropsychological testing, including ADHD, and assessment services. Contact me for a consultation.
I work with school-aged children (approximately 7 years of age and older) and their parents, adolescents, young adults and beyond. Additional services for professional and corporate consultation, training and supervision provided. I also provide testing and assessment for a variety of clinical needs with a fast completion turnaround time.
