Additional focus areas include abandonment, attachment issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia, and women's issues.
Therapeutic methods she uses include client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness therapy. In practice she blends these approaches to match what an individual needs and wants to work on. Sessions aim to be straightforward and action-oriented while honoring each person's experience.
