How we help

We practice Integrative therapy, which is an individualized, holistic approach that combines techniques from different therapeutic models and attends to the whole person.

The models described below may be part of your treatment. Each therapist collaborates with the client to adapt the therapy experience to the client’s individual needs.

Person-Centered Therapy

During Person-Centered Therapy, a therapist acts as a compassionate facilitator, listening without judgment and acknowledging the client's experience without shifting the conversation in another direction. The therapist is there to encourage and support the client without interrupting or interfering with their process of self-discovery as they uncover what hurts and what is needed to repair it.

Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR works by helping a person with trauma overcome mental blocks and raw pain centers that come with distancing the self from the traumatic incident

Clients who have been through EMDR therapy can integrate negative emotions, body reactions, and behavior patterns in a better way. The treatment also teaches new and personalized ways of coping with life challenges. Some coping skills learned by EMDR are healthy behavior, enhanced understanding, and positive thinking. Clients can handle fresh challenges when the brain is trained to process the traumatic incident.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is an action-oriented approach. Clients work toward accepting that painful emotions are appropriate responses to certain situations and should not prevent them from moving forward in their lives. With this understanding, clients begin to accept their hardships and commit to making necessary changes in their behavior.

“People have said, ‘Don’t cry’ to other people for years and years, and all it has ever meant is, ‘I’m too uncomfortable when you show your feelings. Don’t cry.’ I’d rather have them say, ‘Go ahead and cry. I’m here to be with you.’”
