About Colleen
Evidenced Based Practice
I use treatment techniques that are research based and proven to provide the best possible outcome.
Whether you are seeking brief solution-focused therapy to help you remove blocks and barriers to challenging life situations, the treatment of mild anxiety, depression, and social phobias, or more severe disorders such as Bipolar, Major Depression, PTSD, or Generalized Anxiety disorder it is important that you see a therapist who is trained and experienced in techniques that are research based and proven to be effective treatment practices.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is considered to be the most effective treatment method. Albert Ellis, PhD. the founder of Albert Ellis Institute for Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), is one of the most well respected psychologists of the past century. I experienced first hand the wonderful opportunity to meet Dr. Ellis and his collegues while training at the Institute. For a better understanding of his work read "A Guide to Rational Living." You can view the Institute's website at: www.albertellisinstitute.com
Psychodynamic and Ego Psychological approaches are well respected treatment methods in the field. New York University, School of Social Work, is a clinically based curriculum focusing primarily on these methods of treatment.
Additionally, I have training in other methods of treatment that are used to enhance motivation and effectiveness of response to treatment such as Motivational Enhancement Therapy, Trauma Focused CBT, Strengh Based therapy, Narrative, and other Family treatment models.
