What Makes Dr. Belle's Approach Different
Dr. Belle brings a deep understanding of how individual, cultural, and societal factors contribute to psychological distress.

Her approach goes beyond symptom relief to create deeper understanding of how people came to feel the way they do in the first place. She uses a foundation of multicultural and person-centered therapy with elements of other modalities, along with thoughtful, collaborative, and creative "assignments" that increase personal insight and build the roadmap back to authentic identity.
