Treatment Approach
- 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.
- Existential / Humanistic Therapy Encourages people to explore meaning, freedom, and authenticity in their lives. It focuses on personal growth and living in alignment with one’s values.
- Motivational Interviewing (MI) A collaborative, client-centered approach that strengthens motivation for change. It is especially effective for addictions and health behaviors.
- Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian) Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity. It provides a safe space for self-discovery and growth.
- Psychodynamic Therapy Explores unconscious thoughts and patterns that influence current behavior. It builds insight into how the past impacts the present.
- Schema Therapy Identifies deep-rooted negative patterns formed in childhood. It combines CBT, attachment theory, and experiential methods for change.
Approach Description: My style is warm, genuine, and free of judgment. I want to understand your experience as you see it. To help you work towards change, we will identify what’s getting in your way, resolve any hesitations, and figure out a path forward.

As a Clinical Psychologist, I offer more skill than the average therapist. I have extensive education, training ,and research experience. I understand the science and practice of psychology. I'm able to identify, assess, diagnose, and treat a wide variety of mental health conditions. My style of therapy involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, existential and person-centered approaches, and motivational interviewing. At the end of the day what matters most, though, is the connection you have with your therapist. I hope to earn your trust and the privilege of being your therapist.
