EXPERIENCE MATTERS
Treatment Modality
Dr. von Dresner is an expert in several behavioral therapies (BT, CBT, DBT & REBT) and also uses a psychoanalytic approach to understand clients. She will work with your primary care physician, if needed, to optimize psychopharmacological interventions.
The most important part of therapy is you. Your feelings, your wants, your needs. Because of this, Dr. von Dresner takes a different approach to therapy with each client. Her goal is more than merely decreasing psychological symptoms, but making sure clients excel in every aspect of life, including work, relationships, finances, physical health, spirituality, and self-love.
Patients who find no relief with other practitioners, find great success with Dr. von Dresner due to her skilled capacity of functional analysis. Treating high-functioning patients requires more than conventional therapy. To truly understand and treat the problems of C-Level patients, the therapist must be as intelligent and also have an excellent understanding of intricate interpersonal relationships, occupational demands, the psychology of others in your life, the current political and economic climate, and even often business management or board relations.
Dr. von Dresner's expert ability to actualize true self and potential is based on her unique bond with patients: one of radical acceptance, emotional intimacy and cognitive understanding. She is mutually invested in the well-being of patients and often lives their symptomatology to better devise effective interventions. Dr. von Dresner is available to her patients on a 24/7 basis because she believes the best time to fix an issue is when it is happening. She must be there 100% of the time, for patients to trust her 100% of the time.
