Techniques - I am experienced with a variety of theoretical orientations and offer both short and long term therapy. After all, what works well for one person may not be as effective for another.
- In a typical therapy session with me, I will teach specific skills and tools to manage emotions and situations. This can include learning communication skills (such as assertiveness), cognitive behavioral techniques (changing thoughts and behaviors), relaxation techniques, homework assignments, and readings.
- I help clients to tell their life story so as to process the deeper dynamics and meaning of their history. This helps to facilitate insight which for some is instrumental for healing and for change to take place.
