In my practice, I use a person-centered approach, valuing unconditional positive regard. I also incorporate psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy approaches to help you understand how unresolved feelings as well as your thoughts can influence emotions and experiences. Throughout treatment, you'll discover that you have more inner strength than you may have realized.
