Peter's Approach
Practical therapy that connects insight with everyday change.
The treatment approach listed on Psychology Today includes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, with care planned around the concerns that bring you to therapy.
I often work with clients who may be struggling with emotional regulation issues and various related problems. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
