Eclectic Therapy

Just as many other therapists, I recognize that one treatment modality may not be the best fit for everyone who chooses to work with me. That is why I will utilize not only DBT and SFBT but also the treatment modalities listed on my profile. I use a variety of treatment modalities so that we can find the right one for you. I'm receptive to all feedback and want to make sure we address your concerns in a way that works for you.

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 love to learn and grow. I will take what works for people wherever I find it or am taught it. I try and use the client's perspective and worldview to help them understand the what, why, and how of their experiences and use this to make change for the future.

As an eclectic therapist, my outlook is shaped from a variety of theoretical orientations, many of which can exist simultaneously. I primarily work with clients through humanistic/person-centered, psychodynamic, and systems theoretical orientations among others.

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.

I believe that every person has unique needs, preferences, and abilities. Everyone is their own constellation and I will work with you to discover what methods will best address your goals. I have been utilizing the Eclectic approach the entirety of my career and have found many ways to best tailor sessions and treatment to meet individual needs. I use methods that are scientifically proven to work, that go deeper than purely talk therapy, and in which I have been specifically trained.

Eclectic Therapy is a person centered style of therapy that utilizes aspects from more than one therapeutic model, based on the client's individual needs. Eclectic Therapy with one therapist may look different from how it looks with another therapist, as they may choose to combine different types of therapy models.

"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.

I consider a variety of theoretical orientations when conducting therapy.

Eclectic therapy is an approach that allows the therapist to use different methods to cater to the client's individual needs. While addressing the client's needs, the therapist, when needed, will utilize multiple theoretical orientations to help maximize the client's potential to gain insights by drawing upon different forms of learning. I believe the flexibility in eclectic therapy enables the therapist-client relationship to develop a treatment plan best suited for the client.

I am an eclectic therapist in that I pull from a number of different therapeutic orientations and modalities to best support each individual client. There are some overarching grief theories that I utilize AND I don't believe in a one size fits all approach. Your loss was unique to you so your therapy experience gets to be unique to you as well. I like to work with my clients to better understand what tools and approaches are going to be the best fit for them.

My approach focuses on pulling from a wide range of therapeutic modalities to meet the needs of the individual(s) in front of me.

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 believe in an eclectic integrative approach that considers the client through a holistic lens and formulates a treatment plan unique to their journey through healing.

I would describe my treatment orientation as eclectic because I cater my approach to each individual client. I typically tend to use more person-centered or humanistic approaches where the client is seen as the expert on their own experience.

In my practice, I utilize a variety of modalities and theoretical orientations. To me, there is no one size fits all therapy. I believe that by creating a collaborative, therapeutic relationship with my clients, they can discover the tools within themselves to create meaningful change.

My approach depends on the person with whom I'm working.

Eclectic Therapy is the therapeutic practice of curtailing a wide variety of therapeutic exercises to best fit your needs. In sessions with me, we will learn more about the things you want to work on and find the tools that fit best for you.

Integrating different forms of therapy helps to individualize the steps that we will use together to reach your goal. Most often I use attachment, and family systems therapies; as well as, psychodynamic to work towards the core issues identified in treatment so that you identify patterns and manage any triggers that have led to unhealthy coping skills or relationship dynamics.
