Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a psychotherapeutic method focused on fostering psychological flexibility. It encourages individuals to embrace their thoughts and feelings, promoting mindfulness and present moment awareness. ACT comprises six key principles: cognitive defusion, acceptance, present moment awareness, self-as-context, values clarification, and committed action. This approach helps individuals detach from distressing thoughts, accept emotions, and align their actions with their values. ACT is versatile and applicable across various mental health issues, emphasizing resilience, mindfulness, and personal growth.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
We practice Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. It has been shown to be effective for a range of problems including anxiety, depression, and trauma. Many research studies show that CBT improves functioning and quality of life. It has also been demonstrated to be as effective as, or more effective than, other forms of psychological therapy or psychiatric medications.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is a widely recognized therapeutic approach that combines elements of cognitive-behavioral techniques with Eastern mindfulness practices. This evidence-based therapy emphasizes the balance between acceptance and change, encouraging clients to acknowledge and validate their emotions while simultaneously learning practical skills to manage distress and improve interpersonal relationships. DBT consists of four main areas: mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. Through structured individual sessions, clients learn to cultivate emotional awareness, navigate interpersonal conflicts, regulate intense emotions, and cope effectively with crises. DBT equips individuals with the tools they need to lead more fulfilling lives and achieve lasting emotional stability.
Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR)
Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) uses eye movements and other forms of stimulation to activate the brain’s ability to resolve current concerns and past traumas. The ultimate result we feel better, not just think we are better!
