Types of Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT addresses the intense reactions we have to emotional situations, primarily those found in romantic, family and friend relationships. DBT helps people identify their hyper-arousal and employ techniques to attain emotional regulation.

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)

IPT treats mood disorders by acknowledging that depression often coincides with life upheaval, role transitions, or significant changes that impact interpersonal relationships. IPT helps us resolve distressing life events and organize and nourish our social relationships to help us respond to life.

Narrative Therapy (NT)

NT seeks to separate our problems from our selves. We are not what happens to us and we can “rewrite” our stories to reflect our deeper values and beliefs – recognizing our own power and resiliency.

Somatic Experiencing (SE)

Somatic therapies explore how experience is held in and expressed through the body. Somatic therapists help people release stored emotion and resolve troubling symptoms through body awareness, pendulation, titration, and resourcing.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

IFS therapy helps you understand the “parts” of yourself at work in your system that help to keep you safe and protect you. Sometimes these parts, often developed in childhood or during difficult times, make it challenging to live a life rooted in what IFS calls self-energy. The goal of IFS is to help unburden these parts so you can live a life from self-energy.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps us identify the thoughts, emotions, sensations, and behaviors that contribute to our identified presenting problem. By better understanding the relationship between these elements, we can make changes that improve our mood, anxiety and functioning.

Mindfulness-Based Therapies

Mindfulness-based therapies utilize the practices of mindfulness, meditation and deep breathing/relaxation to support individuals with the pain and discomfort that arises from our present condition and from the process of change. Mindfulness allows us to expand the container in which we hold our suffering so it no longer feels so overwhelming.

Solution-Focused

Solution Focused Therapy examines our present-day issues and assists us in applying our unique strengths and abilities to solve our current problems and bring our skills to future situations.

Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. By stimulating both sides of the brain through eye movement or tapping while recalling traumatic events, the brain naturally moves toward a greater state of healing and processes the disturbing information so it lives in the past rather than triggering us in our present day.

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT helps us clarify and deepen the values that drive our lives and then helps stay present and engaged with a life led according to our greater meaning. ACT acknowledges that suffering and negative emotion are part of life and invites us to be present with these feelings and allow space for them rather than dismissing or escaping them. ACT teaches skills to be with the present moment.
