Barb primarily uses cognitive therapy, which focuses on finding solutions for specific issues and problems such as anxiety, depression, or problems in a relationship. Her philosphy is to actively involve the client through homework and assignments, with the goal of developing skills that can be used long after the therapy is completed.

Barb also uses insight-oriented therapy, which considers how a person's past is affecting their present. This type of therapy is interwoven with the cognitive work, when appropriate.

Her methods are eclectic, combining a variety of techniques that are selected based on each client's particular situation. Barb will work with each client to create goals and a customized treatment plan.
