"I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you progress. While we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience, we'll also explore patterns that block progress toward your goals and learns skills for coping. Together we'll work toward building the life you imagine."
