I often utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured approach to change. In our initial session, we'll establish a clear understanding of your needs to design an effective treatment strategy. With CBT, we focus on the powerful connection between your thoughts, feelings, and actions. With CBT, I will equip you with practical tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts.
