Approach to Therapy

My therapy style stands out through a strong emphasis on attachment theory and relationship dynamics. Many patients I see carry early patterns that influence how they connect today, leading to anxiety in relationships, feelings of disconnection, repeated conflicts, or challenges expressing needs. These issues often overlap with depression or stress from daily responsibilities and limited resources. I help patients understand their attachment style and its impact on current relationships. This awareness fosters self-compassion and opens the door to healthier, more secure connections. I combine this focus with evidence-based methods tailored to each person: • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address unhelpful thought patterns. • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and communication. • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to align actions with personal values. • Mindfulness practices to manage stress in the moment. • Motivational interviewing to build on your own strengths and readiness for change. In our telehealth sessions, the relationship we build becomes a safe, consistent space for growth. We work at your pace toward stronger emotional bonds and reduced relational distress.
