I encourage potential clients to call and ask questions regarding psychotherapy in general but specifically to inquire about Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT), Exposure Therapy for anxiety and behavioral activation strategies for depression.
My clients should expect that the majority of their "work" will be outside of the office through homework, exposure and task completion. My clients will benefit from initial sessions that are focused on insight development and understanding the "why" of their current emotional dysregulation . Unmet needs, patterns of behavior and most importantly patterns of thought will be identified. Clients will then spend time utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT) strategies and interventions. Clients will experience therapy that will prioritize and embrace behavioral activation as the vehicle of change. Expect feedback and support!
