Bio
United States Navy Veteran
I have extensive life experience in business management and technical fields.
My approach is client-centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with elements of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Art Therapy.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a psychosocial intervention that is the most widely used evidence-based practice for improving mental health. Guided by empirical research, CBT focuses on the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems and changing unhelpful patterns in cognitions (e.g. thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes), behaviors, and emotional regulation. It was originally designed to treat depression, and is now used for a number of mental health conditions.
I receive job satisfaction from seeing large changes in my patients over a short period of time.
