Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy that was developed by Marsha M. Linehan to help people with borderline personality disorder (BPD). It is a highly structured, skills-based therapy that focuses on helping people learn new coping mechanisms to manage their emotions and behaviors.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a form of therapy that deals with present-day challenges rather than delving into past history or childhood experiences. It is a structured approach that identifies specific goals and proposes techniques to help clients meet those goals in a short time frame.
Eye Movement Desensitize/Reprocess Therapy (EMDR)
EMDR therapy helps individuals recover from distressing life experiences that show up repetitively, as well as trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression and panic disorders. It is a successful, evidence-based treatment that helps to diminish the effects of these experiences.
Accelerated Resolution Therapy
The process is shorter than traditional therapy and is very effective in resolving trauma. The therapist guides the client through a series of eye movements that help to release the emotional impact of the trauma. The ART therapist also helps the client to reframe the event so that it no longer has the same emotional charge.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Children (DBT-C)
DBT-C is specifically designed for pre-adolescents who have trouble regulating intense emotions and therefore tend to act impulsively, overreact to situations, resist change, think in absolutes, and lash out verbally or physically when they are emotionally overwhelmed.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy-Prolonged Exposure (DBT-PE)
In DBT-PE, clients initially work with the therapist to establish safety and gain the skills needed to cope with addressing trauma. While continuing in all modes of standard DBT, DBT-PE then addresses memories and beliefs related to the client’s trauma history.
Parent Child Interaction (PCIT) Therapy
Education and Enrichment of Relational Skills (PEERS) Therapy
Gottman Method Couples Therapy
The Gottman Method is a form of couples therapy that was developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman based on over 40 years of research on what makes relationships work. It focuses on emotionally supportive communication and understanding each partner’s needs in order to foster a healthy relationship.
Family Therapy
Family therapy helps improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen relationships within a family. Therapists work collaboratively with family members to address issues, enhance understanding, and promote positive change. This approach fosters a supportive environment for individuals and the family as a whole, fostering emotional well-being and healthier dynamics.
