Treatment Modalities

A variety of psychological theories inform my clinical approach. Additionally, I often find it beneficial to incorporate multiple complementary techniques (cognitive, emotive and behavioral) into the psychotherapy process. 

 

Integrative Psychotherapy

My training  include the following modalities:  psychodynamic, interpersonal,  dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, ego state therapy, somatic experiencing, brief strategic psychotherapy.  

 In my practice, I take a relational,  strength based approach, striving to facilitate perspective-taking,   utilization of  resources, and potentialities implicit in each person. This process can help transform obstacles and allow realization of a fulfilling life.  I strive to create safe therapeutic environment and welcome  the experiential knowing of the different identities that constitue the wholeness of each individual I work with.   


Consultation, Evaluation and Treatment

I I structure all my initial evaluations as consultations, which generally consists of 2 sessions in adults and 2-4 sessions in children and adolescents .  

At the end of the evaluation, we'll decide, if we are a good fit to work together and collaboratively develop a treatment plan.  

Hypnosis

As a therapeutic technique, clinical hypnosis is highly versatile and powerful. We have many resources within our own mind that hypnosis allows us to become aware of through developing new and helpful association.  Hypnosis is typically integrated with other psychotherapeutic treatments, such as cognitive-behavioral , mindfulness, transpersonal.  Hypnosis acts as a way to amplify these treatments, and there is plenty of evidence that shows that hypnosis generally enhances psychotherapy for this very reason.  The brain has different levels of consciousness and  awareness, ranging from fully alert to drowsy fully asleep, with variations in between.  Hypnotic states are one of these variations and can occur naturally and spontaneously, including : day-dreaming, doing a mundane task and being absorbed in a pleasant activity .  Clinical hypnosis deliberately induces this kind of relaxed state of absorption.   

Hypnosis can also be used to help manage symptoms by engaging with the underlying  patterns which drive our daily life choices.  These symptoms and conditions include : chronic pain, anxiety,  rumination, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, tinnitus.   


For this reason, I often use hypnosis in combination with other psychotherapeutic modalities.   My work is inspired by various tradition, teachers and mentors, including: Milton Erickson, Maggie Phillips, Stephen Gulligan, Jane Peteresen, Bill Plotkin, Alun Parry.   I   I hold a Certification in Clinical Hypnosis by the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis ( ASCH).   I am also an ASCH Approved Consultant in Clinical Hypnosis.
