Primary therapeutic approaches
I can utilize a variety of holistic, non-judgmental, and collaborative therapeutic approaches in order to meet your needs and expectations. These approaches include:
1) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
The most widely researched and accepted therapy. Therapy may include relaxation, thought challenging strategies, appropriate goal setting, and assertiveness skills.
2) Solution Focused Therapy
Exploring and amplifying your inner strengths and resources
3) Mindfulness
Inner awareness of thoughts, feelings, physical sensations, memories, urges, etc. in a detached manner in order to gain greater insight, peace and release
4) I also have training in Hakomi, R-CS, sensori-motor processing (for trauma), EMDR, and hypnosis
5) I also produce and sell a wide variety of quality relaxation CD's
