I like to offer a safe and nonjudgmental area where clients are free to open up and discuss what brought them to wish to speak to someone. From there, I like to offer the treatment modality a client is most comfortable with; whether it is CBT, client-centered or active and empathic listening.

I often utilize parts of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which is how your thoughts can affect your emotions and reactions to stressors you experience. We can discuss these feelings together and come up with a treatment plan and goals that work best for you.
