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.
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
- 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.
- Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) Combines mindfulness practices with CBT to prevent depression relapse. It helps people notice thoughts without judgment and respond more calmly.
- 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.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
- Transactional Analysis Explores interactions through the lens of Parent, Adult, and Child roles. It aims to improve communication and self-awareness.
- Transpersonal Therapy Integrates spirituality and higher states of consciousness with psychology. It encourages growth beyond the individual self.
Approach Description: In brief, most mental health concerns are due to lack of psychological safety. When you don't feel safe, you either cope with the situation if you don't feel it can be changed, or you do something to change the situation. I am curious about what is resulting in lack of safety and how you are coping with it (or not).
The basis of my practice is Person-Centered Psychotherapy (Carl Rogers) which involves me listening and reflecting back what you are saying. I paraphrase what I hear using the language of Psychology. I focus on dysfunctional patterns of thought, whihch I call "faulty logic" and the emotions that may result. I incorporate mindfulness in order to help you self-regulate initially and also because it can become an alternative option when triggered (i.e., rather than follow automatic patterns of behavior, you gradually choose a mindful response).
