Dr. James H. Bramson

I utilize a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) an Adlerian solution focused approach in treating patients. The emphasis of this treatment model is on helping individuals maximize their strengths to achieve significant short and long term goals. My approach is mindfulness based. It stresses purpose driven awareness, accepting what is, being present, facing challenging thoughts, feelings, and situations, accurate self-perception, and finding creative solutions to problems based on meaningful insights and core values.
