Pronouns: He/Him

Brett offers individual, couples, and group therapy. He employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help patients learn healthy coping strategies to better manage life’s stressors. Regarding growth, he believes that one of the most powerful tools we have is learning how to make meaning of our lives; using Narrative Therapy, Brett helps patients identify their value and worth so that they can harness these strengths to address current and future stressors.  

Brett believes in the unique strength of every individual – he realizes that sometimes it can be difficult for patients to see their potential because of mistaken internalized beliefs or perceived weaknesses; Brett works to cultivate strong, supportive relationships with his patients so he can help them correct these distortions.
