My specialization centers on applying Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help individuals understand, manage, and overcome anxiety. I use evidence-based methods to identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, replace them with realistic perspectives, and develop practical coping strategies for daily life. The process begins with building awareness—helping clients recognize the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

My specialization focuses on the application of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). This approach targets the cycle of intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors that sustain distress, helping clients break free from patterns of fear and avoidance.

We examine how negative self-evaluations develop and persist—often reinforced by past experiences or unrealistic standards. Using cognitive restructuring, clients learn to challenge harsh inner dialogue and replace it with balanced, evidence-based self-assessments

My specialization in DBT focuses on integrating its four core modules—Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness—into counseling sessions in a way that is both practical and personalized. In my work, I use DBT to help clients identify and accept their emotions without judgment, while also learning concrete strategies to change unhelpful behaviors. Sessions often combine skill-building exercises, mindfulness practice, and real-life behavioral application.

My specialization in SFBT focuses on helping clients identify what’s working, clarify their goals, and take small, meaningful steps toward the changes they want to see in their lives. In counseling sessions, I use focused questioning, scaling techniques, and visualization of preferred outcomes to guide clients toward solutions that fit their unique situations.
