Dr. Thuy-van Beauford, LICSW
Licensed in Washington D.C, Maryland, and Virginia
My approach emphasizes interventions based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This includes processing challenging situations with clients and identifying negative thought patterns while assisting them with developing new insight and new perspectives. I incorporate problem solving strategies, identifying available options with clients while empowering clients to make decisions in their best interests. I practice communication skills so that clients may address stressors by effectively expressing their needs. I also encourage emotional regulation and holistic wellness by teaching relaxation and self soothing techniques based on mindfulness.
