Approach to Treatment
Dr. Baus believes therapy should be a supportive and empowering process that helps individuals rediscover strengths, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful change. Her treatment approach integrates evidenced-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based strategies, behavioral interventions, and mind-body approaches to promote emotional, behavioral, and physical well-being. Dr. Baus helps her patients develop practical coping skills, improve emotional wellness, and build confidence in their ability to navigate everyday challenges. Her collaborative and individualized approach focuses on strengthening resilience, improving self-awareness, and promoting healthy emotional and behavioral functioning.

She partners closely with parents to provide guidance, education, and effective strategies that support emotional development, behavioral health, academic success, and family well-being. Treatment plans are tailored to each individual's unique strengths, goals, and developmental needs.
In addition to traditional psychotherapy, Dr. Baus incorporates evidence-based mind-body techniques, including clinical hypnotherapy and biofeedback, to support stress reduction, emotional balance, focus, and overall psychological wellness.
