  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

    ACT is a form of psychotherapy that encourages individuals to accept their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty for them. It emphasizes commitment to personal values and taking action to live a meaningful life.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

    CBT is a widely-used, evidence-based therapy that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors. It helps individuals develop healthier thinking and coping strategies to improve emotional regulation and problem-solving.

  • Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)

    CPT is a cognitive-behavioral treatment specifically designed for PTSD. It helps individuals process and reframe traumatic experiences by challenging maladaptive beliefs and reducing trauma-related symptoms.

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) (Informed Approach)

    This approach incorporates key elements of DBT, such as mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, to help clients manage emotions and improve relationships, without following the full DBT protocol.

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

    EMDR is a structured therapy that uses bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements, to help individuals process and integrate traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact and promoting healing.

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) (Informed Approach)

    This approach draws on IFS principles, viewing the mind as composed of multiple parts. It helps individuals understand and harmonize these parts to achieve greater self-awareness and emotional balance.

  • Narrative Therapy

    Narrative therapy centers on the stories individuals tell about their lives. It encourages clients to re-author their narratives, empowering them to view their experiences from new perspectives and create positive change.

  • Person-Centered Therapy

    Developed by Carl Rogers, this therapy emphasizes a non-directive, empathetic approach that fosters a supportive environment. It encourages clients to explore their feelings and self-concept to facilitate personal growth.
