I work with people who are brand new to the world of mental health and those who have had extensive experience with treatment in the past. My approach starts with a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation to get a solid foundation from which to understand and work on your goals. Treatment is specialized for each individual and is a collaborative process with transparency and guidance.

I use different types of therapy depending on the clinical situation and your goals. Some therapy modalities are more time limited and problem focused like CBT and DBT, while other approaches like psychodynamic psychotherapy may be more prolonged and target deep rooted, foundational aspects of one's psyche. We would discuss the pros and cons of different approaches before embarking on a treatment
