Therapeutic treatment is not a one size fits all modality. I work collaboratively with my clients to create the best treatment plan for you with an integrative approach. Typically, I pull from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Theory, and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction with a trauma informed lens.
