Services
Individual Counseling
My individual counseling begins with a comprehensive 90-minute biopsychosocial evaluation to understand your unique challenges. Using Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) and mindfulness techniques, we create a safe space for emotional exploration. This approach helps develop self-awareness, emotional regulation, and healthier coping mechanisms through evidence-based practices like CBT and REBT.
Relationship Counseling
Relationship counseling starts with a 90-minute assessment of relationship dynamics. Combining AEDP and the Gottman Method, we address communication patterns and emotional blocks. This process builds stronger connections through improved conflict resolution, enhanced intimacy, and shared value alignment using ACT and mindfulness techniques for lasting relationship improvements.
Telepsychology Services
Telepsychology services utilize secure video platforms to provide therapy across 42 PSYPACT states. This option offers increased access for clients with mobility challenges, specialized needs, or geographic limitations. Sessions maintain the same therapeutic quality as in-person visits while providing scheduling flexibility and reduced travel requirements for continued care.
Trauma Recovery
Trauma recovery follows Judith Herman's Stages of Recovery framework, beginning with establishing safety and stability. Using insights from 'The Body Keeps the Score,' we address physical and emotional trauma imprints through somatic awareness and cognitive restructuring. This process builds resilience and self-compassion while reducing trauma-related symptoms like flashbacks and hypervigilance.
Men's Issues Therapy
Men's counseling addresses societal expectations around emotional expression using trauma-informed approaches. Through CBT and interpersonal psychotherapy, we challenge harmful narratives about masculinity to improve emotional communication, reduce isolation, and develop healthier coping strategies that align with personal values and relationship goals.
