Our Therapeutic Approach

​

For Building Practical Skills: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a powerful, goal-oriented therapy focused on the interconnectedness of our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. If you find yourself stuck in cycles of anxiety, negative self-talk, or depression, our work with CBT will be highly collaborative. Together, we will identify and reframe the thought patterns and behaviors that may be holding you back, equipping you with practical, lifelong skills to manage life's stressors with greater confidence and a renewed sense of control.

Trauma-Informed Care: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

For clients who have experienced trauma, EMDR offers a structured and profound path toward healing. It is a specialized therapy designed to help your brain reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional intensity and allowing you to move forward. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR works to unlock the memories stored in the body and mind, helping to alleviate the symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and other trauma-related challenges. In a safe and controlled environment, we can work to help you feel less defined by past events and more present in your life today.

To Deepen Connection: Couples Therapy (Gottman Method & EFT)

Relationships are one of the most meaningful—and challenging—parts of our lives. For couples, my approach integrates two of the most respected, research-backed models to foster deep and lasting connection:

• The Gottman Method: Drawing from decades of research, this approach provides a practical roadmap for building a healthy relationship. We will focus on tangible skills to improve communication, manage conflict constructively, and deepen your friendship and intimacy.

• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): EFT goes to the heart of the matter, helping couples understand and break free from negative cycles of interaction. We will work to identify the underlying emotions and attachment needs that drive conflict, creating new, positive patterns of interaction that foster safety, trust, and a secure emotional bond.
