Every therapy office you speak with will have a unique approach to your care. It is not only imperative that you feel safe and understood by your therapist; but that you also know what forms of therapy they offer that may fit your specific needs. See below for the breakdown of what our providers specialize in and what you can inquire about more during your time in counseling with us.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Otherwise known as the 'gold standard' of therapy, CBT focuses on 3 main areas in therapy:
-
Identifying challenging or maladaptive thoughts
-
Discussing ways these thoughts create distress within our lives
-
Creating realistic solutions to addressing and reforming these thoughts to best fit your specific goals
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
Otherwise known as DBT, this form of therapy is most effective for those looking to improve their quality of life by increasing effective coping skills, improving emotional regulation and interpersonal connection, along with integrating mindfulness. DBT is most commonly used with individuals experiencing significant emotional challenges and are looking for ways to find more balance in their life and their relationships.
Person Centered Therapy
What has been referred to as 'more of a worldview than a form of therapy', PC therapy focuses on providing you with unconditional acceptance no matter what you are experiencing and increasing the bond between you and therapist. You can expect your PC therapist to always treat you as the expert of your experience.
Play Therapy
Play is the language of kids that as adults we sometimes forget. Our trained child play therapists will create unique and engaging conversations with your child through games. Through the language of play, our play therapists will help 'interpret' what your child is experiencing and trying to communicate.
Attachment Therapy
Our early experiences (especially traumatic ones) with caregivers and parents alike can greatly influence our relationships, impact how we see the world, and create challenges in how we see ourself within the world. Your attachment based therapist will focus on building a sense of safety and security within the counseling space, focus on developing healthy attachments, and model how to do this outside of therapy.
Narrative Therapy
Have you ever felt like you were apart of a story that you never necessarily agreed to be in? Or perhaps trapped by the own narrative in your head? Your narrative therapist will come alongside you to help you externalize those self judgements you grew up with or were told and create space for ones that better serve you and help achieve your goals.
