Treatment Modalities

We offer a range of evidence-based and holistic therapies to help you meet your mental health goals. Our team specializes in the following approaches:

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT):

DBT helps individuals balance self-acceptance with the need for change. Core skills include mindfulness, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR):

EMDR is effective for treating trauma by helping clients process distressing memories.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT):

CBT focuses on changing negative thought patterns to improve emotional well-being.

Internal Family Systems (IFS):

IFS helps individuals understand and heal their inner "parts" or subpersonalities, fostering self-compassion and inner harmony by engaging with these parts.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT):

ACT encourages individuals to accept difficult emotions while committing to actions aligned with their values, promoting psychological flexibility.

Prolonged Exposure (PE):

PE is designed to treat trauma by gradually exposing individuals to trauma-related memories and stimuli to reduce emotional distress over time.

Polyvagal Therapy:

Based on the Polyvagal Theory, this therapy aims to regulate the nervous system by fostering a sense of safety, especially for those dealing with trauma and emotional dysregulation.

Family Systems Therapy:

This therapy views problems within the context of family dynamics, aiming to improve relationships by understanding and altering family interaction patterns.

Somatic Work:

Focusing stored trauma in the body by helping individuals become aware of physical sensations to promote emotional healing.

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP):

ERP is primarily used to treat OCD by gradually exposing individuals to anxiety-provoking situations while preventing the compulsive behaviors they typically engage in.

Alpha-Stim Therapy:

A non-invasive treatment for anxiety, depression, and insomnia, Alpha-Stim promotes relaxation and emotional balance.

We look forward to meeting you!
