What does a first session with you look like?

Clients who work with me can expect to come a safe space and openly share their thoughts and feelings free from judgment. We will work on changing feelings by addressing non useful ways of thinking as well as practical exercises designed to overcome barriers and develop skills in any area of life you feel might be holding you back.

What is your style/approach to therapy?

I use a foundation of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with supplemental interventions taken from Psychodynamic Therapy, Psycho-Somatic techniques and hypnotherapy. I also utilize Motivational Interviewing to treat addictions and substance use problems.
