About Treatment with Dr. Bass

Your treatment is individually designed specifically for you to address your specific needs. No two treatments are alike.

I am a holistic and integrative psychologist, and thus, I use a blend of mainstream psychological strategies with innovative approaches. What does this exactly mean? Holistically oriented refers to my treatment of you in a comprehensive way as a whole person, including an exploration of your emotional, spiritual, physical, intellectual, nutritional, social, cultural, familial and psychological needs.

Attention is given to many aspects of your life at the same time to help you make permanent changes and prevent new problems from arising.

Mainstream psychological strategies refers to my use of treatments considered usual and customary, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy or Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.

Innovative approaches refers to the use of strategies such as meditation, breath work, mind-body work, exercise and nutrition as part of a complete training program, for example. An integrative psychologist integrates mainstream practices with innovative approaches. I am a therapist that thinks “outside of the box.”  You can read a detailed list of therapies that I provide on the Therapies and Training Offered page of this website.

I am here to provide you with a safe haven where you can let your guard down and work on your problems.

Under my care your emotional pain is met with reassurance……. your fear is met with compassion ……. your anger is met with understanding.

In this kind of caring environment, the return of hope is possible.
