Individual Therapy & Case Consultation
Initial intake sessions and consultations are one hour and 20 minutes and the individual therapy sessions following the intake are 45-50 minutes. I draw from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Division of Responsibility (DOR). Treatment is goal-oriented with a focus on skills strengthening through homework in between sessions. Your feedback, in regards to how you would like to feel differently, think differently, or behave differently, will inform the work we do together.
I also use a multidisciplinary team when needed. I'll help connect you with other providers I know and trust if this is what your treatment is calling for. This may include psychiatrists, primary care physicians, or dietitians. I'll maintain close contact with these providers to ensure we're all on the same page. I may also recommend a higher level of care if I observe that an outpatient setting is not providing the level of support you need.
I treat adolescents, young adults and adults.
