CBT is considered the gold standard treatment for anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

At the core of my work is a relational approach, which recognizes that our relationships—past and present—play a vital role in shaping who we are.

This method focuses on understanding the connections between your interpersonal dynamics, emotional patterns, and overall well-being.

What Is a Relational Approach?

A relational approach explores how your interactions with others, including the therapeutic relationship, influence your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It’s about identifying patterns, understanding how they developed, and learning how they impact your life today.

How It Works

Exploration of Relationships: Together, we’ll examine your experiences in key relationships, including family, friendships, romantic partners, and colleagues.

Insight into Patterns: We’ll uncover recurring dynamics that may be limiting your ability to form meaningful and fulfilling connections.

Therapeutic Connection: The relationship we build in therapy serves as a safe space to reflect, grow, and experiment with new ways of relating to yourself and others.
