What's My Approach to Therapy?
My work is grounded in the use of evidence-based interventions, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). As such, I'm eager to help clients build mindful awareness of their values, emotions, and behaviors. This awareness ultimately empowers clients to make values-consistent choices to build rich, fulfilling lives, even in the midst of difficult experiences and circumstances.
I'm additionally trained in a variety of diagnosis-specific interventions, such as exposure and response prevention for obsessive compulsion (OCD) and CBT for panic conditions, and I'm adept with transdiagnostic interventions such as the unified protocol (UP). For the first seven years of her career, I specialized in treating trauma in complex, marginalized populations. As such, I have completed advanced training in multiple gold-standard treatments for posttraumatic stress (PTSD), including cognitive processing therapy (CPT), prolonged exposure therapy (PE), and written exposure therapy (WET).
