I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. The goal of CBT is to help you explore and redirect your thoughts in order to make progress and positive changes. This involves analyzing your thoughts and how they affect your emotions, behavior and experience. During our session, we will explore how to identify toxic thoughts and to change them towards a more positive experience.
