Tweeten is here as an unofficial alternative to Tweetdeck, and it's aim is to diverge more and more both in its appearance and functionality. I also frequently use specific empirically valid treatment modalities, for example Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Exposure & Response Prevention.Since acquiring Tweetdeck, Twitter has let this app lose momentum, up to the point where it's actually abandoned support for a number of development parts, such as its native desktop client for Windows. For others, a foundation of coping skills and insight sets the stage for deeper exploration.įor those of you who may appreciate technical terms, my approach to integrative treatment is informed by the following theoretical orientations: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Family Systems, Interpersonal, Psychodynamic & Multicultural Theory. For some people, this is sufficient and they feel ready to end treatment. I am well versed in brief treatment strategies that hone in on your core needs and equip you with coping skills. Many people delay seeking therapy because they are worried that it will take a great deal of time to make meaningful progress. Combining Cognitive Behavioral & Depth oriented therapies I will rely on you as the expert on your own experiences and needs, while compassionately challenging you to engage with fear and pain so that they cannot rule your life anymore.
If I am the right fit for you, your partnership, or your family, you will find that we laugh a lot, build actionable plans, feel emotionally moved together, and connect themes across your life that maybe you never knew were there. It is an exchange of perspectives, emotions, and hope in conjunction with skill building. Therapy is not something "done" to you like a medical treatment. However, I cannot emphasize enough that it is an active collaboration. Yes, therapy involves exploration of feelings and objective listening. I want to start by addressing a common misconception that therapy is a space where people vent about their problems to someone who sits back and occasionally asks, "How does that make you feel?" I was delighted to be part of an additional treatment team, Trans* Care Team, which spearheaded policy to provide documentation in support of UCF students seeking Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). In addition to my role as a staff psychologist, I coordinated the UCF Eating Disorders Management Team, a multidisciplinary team focused on treatment and case management of eating disorders.Īnother invaluable aspect of my time at UCF was the opportunity to work with individuals of diverse cultural backgrounds, gender identities, and the intersection of marginalized identities. Prior to transitioning to private practice, I had the privilege of working at University of Central Florida Counseling & Psychological Services for close to 4 years. With adults, I also have experience with personality and memory testing. I have extensive background in comprehensive assessment of ADHD, learning disorders, emotional functioning, behavioral and developmental concerns. I have worked in the mental health field for over 10 years within: school based therapy programs, community mental health clinics for children & families, inpatient & partial hospitalization programs for children & adolescents, a private practice setting focused on adults, and university based counseling centers. I was trained within a generalist model, meaning that I am equipped with working knowledge of a broad range of presenting concerns and approaches to therapy. This was a perfect fit for me, as I always knew that my heart for this field was in direct interaction with clients, be it through therapy or testing. is intensively focused on the practice of therapy and assessment of psychological concerns, with less emphasis on conducting research.
The primary difference is that the training of a Psy.D. You may be wondering what does “Psy.D.” mean and how is it different from someone with a “Ph.D.”? Both are doctoral level degrees. I obtained my doctorate in Clinical Psychology in 2012 from Xavier University, which is currently ranked the 8th best Psy.D. I have been licensed as a psychologist in the state of Florida since March 2015 (License #PY 9261).
