What I Practice
I believe that a key reason clients come to therapy is they are being significantly impacted by adverse life events that they have not fully processed. These events can express themselves in many ways including but not limited to anxiety, depression, personality disorders, ADHD, and PTSD. Below are the key therapies that I utilize to help people heal from their past and become more resilient in the present.
