How I Help
My Therapy Modalities
and Guiding Principles
I specialize in specific treatment modalities, to ensure that the therapy you receive is high-quality and focused. See below for more information about my therapeutic approach and considerations.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is an evidence-based therapy that helps people to identify, evaluate, and work to change thoughts, beliefs, and behavioral patterns. Some of your thoughts, beliefs and patterns may be helpful and worth building on; some of them may be standing in your way. We would work to determine how to best support the goals and progress you want in your life.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy:
-
Is considered a first-line therapy for Anxiety, Depression, Trauma/PTSD, and other difficulties with stress and burnout
-
Focuses on teaching practical skills that you can use to support your wellness long term.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, is an evidence-based therapy approach that helps people to work on building meaning and fulfillment in their life through a focus on values, acceptance, and psychological flexibility. With these areas of focus, clients can build mindful and nonjudgmental awareness of their thoughts, let go of unhelpful or unneeded thoughts, and focus their actions and choices on the things they value most, even if they are navigating difficult emotions.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy:
-
Is a first-line therapy for Anxiety, Depression, and other clinical concerns.
- Focuses on clarifying your values and taking meaningful steps to support the life you want
Mindfulness Integration
Mindfulness skills can be integrated with other forms of therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, or stress. The process of mindfulness can help you build more awareness of your own thoughts and feelings, foster acceptance around those experiences, and be thoughtful about your values and goals as you navigate challenges and make decisions in your life.
Mindfulness Integration:
-
Can help to enhance the other work you are doing in therapy
-
Has a strong research base
-
Can help you to respond to stress in thoughtful ways.
Trauma-Informed Care
Trauma-Informed Care means that I am thoughtful in our work together, and I work at a pace you are comfortable with. Stressful life events and trauma can have a significant impact on all individuals. I will focus on building trust and a collaborative relationship with you, and on ensuring that you feel in control. You have a voice here, and I want to ensure that you feel empowered to use your voice in therapy.
Trauma-Informed Care can help with:
-
Building a relationship of trust and collaboration
-
Reducing retraumatization, and ensuring that you feel heard and understood
-
Building a sense of empowerment
Maintenace
Therapy
Change is difficult, and building consistency doesn't happen overnight. It is common for people who have been in therapy before to benefit from ongoing work to help them reinforce new skills they have learned, or to address additional issues that have arisen in life. Maintenance therapy can help you remain focused on your goals, gain valuable support, continue taking steps toward growth, and troubleshooting challenges that arise.
Maintenance therapy can help you:
-
Navigate new challenges and put to use the skills you have built
-
Remain focused on your growth and long-term goals
-
Build ongoing support
