Areas of Expertise
Applied Behavior Analysis
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientific approach to understanding behavior. ABA refers to a set of principles that focus on how behaviors change, or are affected by the environment, as well as how learning takes place. The term behavior refers to skills and actions needed to talk, play, and live
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is a type of psychotherapy that emphasizes acceptance as a way to deal with negative thoughts, feelings, symptoms, or circumstances. It also encourages increased commitment to healthy, constructive activities that uphold your values or goals.
Meditation & Yoga
Meditation is the art of breathing through adverse thoughts and feelings to center the mind and reconnect the breath and the body. Yoga is similar to meditation with the addition of connecting movement to the breath to release tension, stretch the muscles and ground the body at the core.
