My approach is generally psychodynamic,
paying careful attention to how one’s past experiences
influence the present interactions with people and determine
expectations of self and others in the world. While
I generally employ a psychodynamic lens with clients,
I strongly believe in psychotherapy integration and
therefore employ a variety of treatment techniques in
the actual therapy process. I often turn to experiential
work, gestalt-based techniques, as well as Cognitive-Behavioral,
relational and existential traditions when I feel such
interventions can advance the therapy process. In the
end, all the different therapy techniques are just tools
to opening up areas of experience previously cordoned
off by the variety of outdated defenses people use everyday.
