Psychotherapy

Individual Therapy
Although my training is cognitive-behavioral based, I believe strongly that one approach truly does not fit all. During our first appointment, I will listen carefully to discover what would be the best fit for your personal needs, interests, and goals.

By the end of the first or second session, I will be able to offer you some first impressions of what our work will include if you decide to continue with therapy.

I frequently use handouts, readings, and worksheets to help you integrate the therapy sessions into your daily life.
