Our Therapeutic Approaches
We believe in meeting you where you are and working together to find the right approach that fits your needs.
Here’s a bit about the therapies we offer:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR is a gentle, but incredibly powerful, therapy for those who have experienced trauma. It helps you process painful memories in a way that reduces their emotional intensity and allows you to integrate them into your life with a sense of healing. It’s a safe and transformative way to move beyond past wounds.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a practical, hands-on approach to help you change negative thinking patterns and behaviors that may be holding you back. It’s especially helpful for managing anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching you how to shift your mindset to a more positive and balanced place.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
DBT is all about learning how to manage intense emotions and improve relationships. It combines mindfulness, acceptance, and practical skills to help you navigate life’s challenges in a way that’s healthier and more balanced. It’s great for building emotional resilience and coping strategies.
EFT Tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques)
EFT is a simple yet powerful tool that combines tapping on acupressure points with focused thoughts to release emotional blocks. It’s particularly helpful for managing anxiety, stress, and trauma, and it’s a great way to reduce emotional tension quickly. We’ll guide you through tapping to help you feel more grounded and centered.
Psychodynamic Therapy
If you’re curious about how your past may be influencing your present, psychodynamic therapy helps explore the unconscious mind and patterns you may not be aware of. This approach digs deeper into your history and relationships, uncovering how old wounds may be affecting you today, with the goal of increasing self-awareness and emotional healing.
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
MBCT combines traditional CBT with mindfulness practices to help you become more aware of your thoughts and emotions. It’s especially useful if you’re looking to manage anxiety, depression, or chronic stress. By focusing on the present moment, MBCT helps you break free from negative thinking and learn to embrace life as it is.
Creative & Artistic Therapy
Sometimes words aren’t enough to express how we’re feeling. That’s where creative and artistic therapies come in. Whether it’s through art, music, dance, or other creative outlets, we’ll help you use these expressive tools to process emotions and gain insight. It’s a fun, empowering way to connect with yourself and explore your feelings in a new way.
Trauma-Focused Therapy
If you've experienced significant trauma, our trauma-focused therapy is designed to help you process and heal from those experiences. We’ll work at a pace that feels right for you, reducing trauma-related symptoms and helping you move toward emotional recovery.
