I often use Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Dialectical Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we use these techniques to establish a therapeutic rapport and start the journey towards healing, mind-body-spirit. With CBT and DBT, we'll discover how your thought patterns affect your emotions and how best to identify triggers that lead to emotional dysregulation.

CBT focuses on helping participants recognize and change negative thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors that contribute to distress. CBT is an evidenced-based approach that is structured, goal-oriented, and skill-focused. It is designed to help individuals develop healthier ways of thinking and responding to life's challenges. Participants will learn practical strategies to identify and reframe negative thought patterns, regular emotions, improve problem-solving skills, and develop coping mechanisms for stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns.
