Psychotherapy for Adolescents and Adults
Specializing in Treating Anxiety & Depression, Teens, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Brief Trauma Resolution Therapy
Anxiety and Depression
Seeking treatment for Anxiety and Depression is not an easy task. For many, the idea of starting therapy to explore what can be painful and uncomfortable emotions and topics is a daunting task. I will strive to provide the validation and support that you need as you take on this important journey.
Adolescents and Teens
Trust is an integral part of the therapeutic relationship. When working with adolescents and teenagers, it is often difficult to balance the trust of the patient with that of the family. I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings with teens and families and bring over 10 years of experience to serving their needs.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) has become one of the most sought after forms of treatment available in psychotherapy. DBT is an amazing and effective approach. It incorporates individual treatment with skill building to address issues ranging from life threatening to life interfering. With DBT, we will work together to build your Life Worth Living. I have been through intensive training for DBT.
Brief Trauma Resolution Therapy
Pioneered by Dr. Eric Gentry, Brief Trauma Resolution Therapy (BTRT) is viewed as a more humane approach to trauma treatment than prolonged exposure therapy. Utilizing a time limited and precise method, BTRT seeks to provide relief of trauma symptoms without the patient enduring long periods of exposures, thereby minimizing discomfort and fear . I have extensive training in this method by the International Association of Trauma Professionals.
