In our work together, we'll primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured, goal-oriented approach focused on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. If CBT doesn't seem to be the best fit for your needs, we may explore other modalities like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which is great for emotional regulation, or EMDR for trauma-related issues.
