I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. I also use DBT at times, as well as motivational interviewing. In the first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy and decide the most appropriate avenue for you to reach your goals. During your treatment, you'll learn ways to change your thought patterns and ways to cope with emotional dysregulation, among others.
