I incorporate therapy with medication management in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to the clinic and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts and learn new coping skills.
