Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
I provide my clients a "toolbox" of skills they can use both now and in the future. I was fortunate to have trained directly with Dr. Albert Ellis, the developer of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and Dr. Francine Shapiro, originator of EMDR plus numerous and hypnosis trainings with many of the top hypnotherapists in the field.
