I am trained in using a variety of treatment methods. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as well. I often incorporate aspects of several models of therapy to give clients a diverse approach to their treatment. During our initial sessions, we will discuss the best approach for your concerns.
