treatment models
When it comes to therapy, every individual is different in the way they respond to treatment modalities. Some approaches may work while others may not. As a psychologist, part of our role is to find the specific approach that resonates with each individual client, instead of using a single model for everyone. Therefore, my practice is able to utilize the various treatment approaches:
Play therapy & Art therapy
Cognitive Behavioral therapy
Problem Solving therapy
Solution Focused therapy
Narrative therapy
Family System therapy
Emotion Focused therapy
Trauma-Attachment therapy
Energy therapy through sounds/music, breath work, and EFT/Tapping
Spiritual or Transpersonal therapy
Child/Family Issues
Specially trained to work with a variety of mental health disorders in children and their families, using Trauma-Attachment lenses.
Psychoeducational Assessment
Adept in cognitive and mental assessments of children aged 6-18, with the unique ability to formulate accurate diagnoses.
