I tailor my approach to the person sitting in front of me. Depending on how you learn, and which techniques/coping skills you find helpful, I will implement either a variety of treatments, or a focused approach. So whether you love being assigned homework, expressing yourself through art and meditative work, or just want to vent, we will make it work! :)
