Eclectic Therapy

I embrace Eclectic Therapy as a dynamic tool for personalized healing. Recognizing that each individual is unique, I draw from a diverse range of therapeutic modalities tailored to meet specific needs. This flexible approach allows me to integrate elements from cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, and humanistic therapies.

I focus primarily on building my relationship with my clients and then sharing therapeutic tools as they become relevant. Studies have shown that the biggest indicator of positive change for clients is the quality of relationship they feel they have with their therapist, so this is my anchor. The principles of building relationship that I strive to embody are authenticity, compassion, and creation of a collaborative relationship that focuses on the client needs.

I am constantly participating in trainings and staying up to date on research to utilize any approach that may benefit my clientele.

I consider a variety of theoretical orientations when conducting therapy.

My eclectic approach allows my work with you to be fully present just for you. I don't use any one-size-fit-all plan or orientation, and can tailor our work together to meet your needs and the best application for your life.

"eclectic" simply means i do not exclusively follow any one or any few therapeutic modalities. i commit to an eclectic approach to honor the uniqueness of each client. i value remaining flexible and open so i can meet every client right where they are, as they are. i hope the information on my profile can offer a strong sense of the work i do and why i do the work i do.

Together we will discuss how you would like to use therapy to your benefit. We discuss your intentions / goals for therapy in the first session. I utilize any relevant tools/interventions/modalities Ive learned work to help guide your process. My approach is collaborative and empowering. In 1 session I may use CBT, Relationship coaching, strength based therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. Someone with trauma I will work in tandem with another therapist using EMDR. The sky is not the limit!

I'm extensively trained and experienced in a number of treatment modalities- Soldier's Heart, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, Gottman Method Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Psychodynamic Therapy, Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS), Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST), and more. BUT... I meet you where YOU are, I don't impose any agenda on you and what you're dealing with.

I valued YOUR individuality and Eclectic therapy blends relevant evidence-based treatments to create a highly individualized treatment plan to meet YOUR needs. Eclectic therapy integrates your values, your goals, and your personality with treatments that are accommodating, flexible, and dynamic. Rather than utilizing rigid treatment protocols, an Eclectic approach tends to feel safe, relaxed, and catered to you. This balance supports personal growth with a validating, comfortable vibe.

I always try to incorporate humor into my sessions to alleviate stress and help clients find some joy, even for a moment, in their lives.

My therapeutic style is eclectic in that I often mix a variety of intervention techniques depending on your treatment goals and needs that day. Some sessions will include mostly reflection and deepening clarity of your inner workings, others might include pyschoeducation and skills building. I like to use infographics to information or to help to link personality traits, communication styles, and symptoms. I also suggest media to take in outside of session to deepen work done in session.

My therapeutic style integrates multiple modalities. I believe that our styles must align with the needs of our clients.

I believe Eclectic Therapy can be one of the greatest tools in the therapy relationship. Utilizing interventions from both behavioral therapy (more skills-based, immediate, observable solutions) and insight-oriented therapy (asking questions of identity, figuring out who you are, exploring self-narratives), I help clients improve their lives on a day-to-day basis as well as gaining a sense of wholeness underneath it all. I pull from many schools of therapy to tailor my eclectic approach.

I use an eclectic therapeutic approach in order to provide personalized therapy tailored to each person’s individual needs. I rely on evidence-based and solution-focused modalities and incorporate them based on individual needs. Eclectic therapy is a flexible approach that allows me to collaborate with clients and treat each person based on their specific needs and goals.

Eclectic to me, means a model that allows me to integrate different approaches and theories to best serve my client's needs. I was trained to listen deeply in a very robust, clinical, client-centered, and holistic model of psychotherapy where issues like anxiety and depression could be engaged with from either a psychodynamic perspective or a cognitive behavioural one. When notions from the world of Gestalt therapy are helpful, then I will use those etc.

I use an eclectic therapy approach, which allows me to draw from multiple therapeutic techniques to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs. This flexibility ensures that I can address a wide range of issues, from trauma and anxiety to depression and life transitions. By combining different methods, I can adapt to what works best for the client, offering a personalized path to healing and growth that evolves as the client's needs change throughout therapy.

As an eclectic therapist I am able to use components of many different therapeutic orientations to best meet your needs. I am trained in numerous treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, EMDR, Addiction Treatment, Mindfulness Based Treatment, Solution Focused, Etc. My training and understanding of many tools allows me to provide the most integrative and individualized care for you.
