Philosophy & Approach

Dr. Wedgle takes a collaborative, evidence-based approach to therapy. She believes in tailoring treatment to meet each client's unique needs and goals, working together rather than directing from above. Her therapeutic style blends genuine warmth and empathy with practical, skills-based strategies for change.

In her work, Dr. Wedgle draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), while incorporating elements of mindfulness, acceptance-based approaches, and interpersonal therapy when appropriate. She views the therapeutic relationship itself as a key mechanism of healing — a safe, honest, and non-judgmental space where growth becomes possible.

Her role, as she sees it, is to provide guidance, support, and evidence-based tools while you remain the expert on your own life and experiences.
