My practice consists of helping my clients become more effective actors in their lives. In the service of these goals, I teach them how to become better critical thinkers, (working together on creating healthy beliefs about themselves, others, and their environments), providing the mental tools required for emotional regulation and a fulfilling life. Additionally, we work together on understanding the past and present sources of troublesome behaviors and reducing them; this approach is called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. And, I specialize in a form of CBT called Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), used to treat OCD.
In addition to CBT, I help my clients cope with existential issues, focusing on death, lack of meaning, isolation, and the fear of making important choices. We begin with an exploration of one's values (what’s important to her, him, or them), how they developed and whether they contribute to the client's happiness.
My final area of focus is psychological trauma and narcissistic abuse. I help my clients explore and alter the effects of emotional trauma, such as shame, guilt, relationship or attachment insecurity and a negatively distorted self-image resulting from emotional and/or physical abuse or mistreatment.
