Treatment Approach
- Behavioral Therapy Uses learning techniques like reinforcement and practice to change unwanted behaviors. It is often applied to phobias, anxiety, and habits.
- Christian Counseling Blends psychological practices with Christian values and scripture. It provides faith-based support for life challenges and spiritual growth.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Gottman Method Couples Therapy Based on decades of research, this method gives couples tools to improve communication, manage conflict, and strengthen intimacy.
Approach Description: I feel it is important to consider all aspects of an individual's functioning such as physical, spiritual, social, and emotional as part of the process of good mental health. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used consistently to affect change.

The counseling theory I work from is a systems approach which views the individual from a micro to macro aspect. Micro meaning the individual has a unique experience within the context of their family of origin. Macro meaning we are shaped by our environment from our family of origin extending to our culture and society.
