I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, all forms of anxiety on the spectrum (social anxiety, OCD, GAD), habits and addictions as well as trauma. At the beginning of therapy, I have the client complete a diagnostic survey and questionnaire to understand more about their mental health history, along with collect pertinent background and goals during the initial session.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Neuro-Linguistic Programming in my practice. I like to use the TEAM approach to CBT in which a typical session will first entail testing (mood survey), followed by spending time in empathy, then agenda setting and finally methods. We will work together to reprogram negative core thoughts and beliefs that will lead to healthier emotions and behaviors.
