Evidence-Based Therapies
Our therapists are trained in a variety of evidence-based therapeutic modalities, including:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps individuals understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, enabling them to develop healthier thinking patterns and coping strategies.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT): DBT is especially effective for individuals struggling with emotional regulation, teaching mindfulness, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
EMDR Therapy: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, trauma-focused therapy designed to help individuals process past trauma and reduce the emotional charge of distressing memories.
Trauma-Informed Therapy: Our therapists prioritize creating a safe and empathetic space for those dealing with trauma. We approach therapy with an understanding of how trauma impacts individuals and the healing process.
