My practice has shown me over the years, that we are all unique and that a "cookie cutter" appproach is not effective. I therfore view myself as eclectic and employ a variety of therapies and approaches, including:

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic therapy is a talk therapy, that explores past experiences, thoughts and emotions to understand how they shape current behaviors and mental health issues like, depression, anxiety, as well as their impact on your relationships. This approach helps increase awareness, gain self-insight, improve relationships and resolve underlying conflicts.

Brief Therapy

Also known as solution-focused therapy, it is an approach based on solution building rather than problem-solving. Although it acknowledges present problems and past causes, it predominatnly explores an individual's current resources and future hopes - helping them to look forward and use their own strngths to achieve their goals. As the name suggests, brief therapy is considered a time-limited approach. However the technique is often incorporated into other long-term therapy approaches.

Person-Centered Therapy

Also known as client-centered therapy, the goal of PCT is to provide clients with an opportunity to develop a sense of self where they can realize how their attitudes, feelings and behavior are being negatively affected. It is often a popular and effective treatment.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

This model hypothesizes that people's thoughts and feelings are not determined by a situation, but by their interpreation and construction of the situation. It is based on the premise that core belifs trigger automatic thoughts which then csn evoke emotions, which then often lead to unwanted behaviors or actions.

Motivational Interviewing

Now recognized in a variety of settings beyond health care, individuals often find this four-process model of engaging, focusing , evoking and planning quite helpful in achieving their goals.
