As I spend more years in clinical practice, my approach becomes more and more eclectic. I believe the therapeutic relationship is at the core of success in therapy. My approach is evidence-based and is informed by the following:

1. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
2. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
3. Motivational Interviewing (MI)
4. Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERPT)
5. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR)
