Mental Health Therapy Modalities
Just like there are many aspects to our overall mental health and wellness,
there are different therapies to consider when addressing challenges people face.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
This therapy investigates and addresses learned patterns of unhelpful behavior and thinking. CBT can help form better ways to cope and reframe negative thought patterns and helps to treat anxiety, depression, alcohol and drug use, and eating disorders.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
This therapy acknowledges that real life is complicated and requires one to accept the need to regularly balance opposing forces we face. Core tenets include emotion-regulation skills, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. DBT helps treat borderline personality disorder, self-harm, suicidal thinking, PTSD, and depression.
Attachment-Based Therapy (ABT)
This therapy explores how early childhood experiences affect an individual's ability to form relationships and brings those experiences into one's awareness. ABT helps promote healing from past abandonment trauma, abuse, and neglect and helps treat anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and can improve trust in relationships.
Gottman Method
This therapy helps couples disarm verbal conflict through exercises and skills that increase intimacy, respect, and affection. Empathy and understanding are brought into sessions as well as helping partners generate positive interactions. The Gottman Method is based on longitudinal studies with over 3,000 couples - therapists focus helping couples identify resolvable vs. perpetual conflicts.
Understanding the 9 facets of your life reveal the path forward to change.
The foundation of our practice relies on systems theory, which means that an individual, couple, or family's functioning is affected by all of the complex moving parts of their lives, including relationships with others.
Topics explored during therapy might include boundaries, personal values, feedback loops, communication gridlock, parenting and family of origin dynamics.
Systemic psychotherapy is effective in helping with anxiety, depression, body image issues, and relationship crises.
