Approach & Interventions

I utilize a combination of behavioral interventions and talk therapy to help you achieve your goals. I strive to create a safe, trauma-informed environment that recognizes how your personal history, the systems you are apart of, and family-of origin dynamics can affect your mental health. I meet you where you’re at each session and tailor treatment to your individual needs, ensuring a personalized and dynamic therapeutic approach.

Evidence-based techniques used:

  • Exposure and Response Prevention

    ERP is for people with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and complex anxiety disorders (health anxiety, existentialism, social anxiety). It helps people become more tolerant of uncertainty while facing their fears.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

    CBT sheds light on how our behaviors, thoughts, and feelings are all interrelated. It’s proven to be efficacious for the treatment of anxiety, OCD, and depression, and focuses on challenging anxious thoughts and unhelpful thinking patterns.

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy

    DBT is based on the idea that two opposing emotions can exist at the same time. It blends present moment awareness with coping skills and helps people who struggle with emotion regulation.

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

    ACT places an emphasis on engaging in behaviors that help people live life according to their values. It teaches psychological flexibility for those who have difficulty with rigid thinking and avoidant behaviors.
