We'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings and health for the better. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month with sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. I also employ narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, behavioral modification, solution focused and other modalities.
