Types of Therapy Techniques We Provide
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
Emotionally Focused Therapy focuses on healing relationships from a place of emotional awareness. Our therapists work with clients to identify and manage difficult emotions, helping to resolve relationship and interpersonal distress and create corrective emotional experiences. It is commonly used for couples counseling, but also used for individual therapy. Whether you’re navigating conflicts or feeling disconnected, EFT offers a compassionate and structured approach to strengthening bonds and improving mental health.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR)
Based on the theory that normal and traumatic memories are stored differently in the brain, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy helps people with trauma, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. EMDR helps clients process distressing memories and desensitize their impact on their daily lives.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and reshaping negative thought patterns that influence behaviors and emotions. CBT is a proven approach for treating anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges by helping clients develop healthier ways to respond to life’s stressors.
