I most often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. With this therapy, we explore how your thoughts and behaviors affect how you feel, and how we can change these thing to help you feel better. I also teach parents behavioral techniques, focusing on positive attention, to manage their child's problem behaviors (like not listening). I integrate other approaches as appropriate, as well.
