Couples therapy

Between life’s pressures and high expectations, it is common for couples to find their relationships strained and at risk of failure. Couples therapy overcomes lingering conflicts and resentments while establishing healthier, more empathetic communication.

logotherapy

Do you ever think about your purpose and place in the world? Developed from the notion that the pursuit of life’s meaning is our most fundamental human motivation, logotherapy focuses on living a purpose-driven life.

Acceptance and commitment
therapy (ACT)

Suffering from difficult events, emotions, and situations are a pact of life. While it is only natural to shy away from the painful aspects of life, it’s virtually impossible to erase them altogether. Acceptance and commitment therapy combines mindfulness with acceptance to better handle unpleasant experiences.

Comprehensive resource
model (crm)

Traumatic events can disassociate us from ourselves and manifest mental, emotional, and physical pain. In response, we develop defense mechanisms, creating unpleasant reactions when triggered. CRM uses a variety of techniques to change the way our memories and experiences affect us.

Rational emotive behavior
therapy (rebt)

Our lives are impacted by our belief systems, and irrational or negative beliefs can wreak havoc on our relationship with both ourselves and our family. REBT helps individuals reverse irrational beliefs, focus on healthier and more productive ways of thinking, and foster acceptance.

Motivational interviewing (mi)

Lasting positive change starts with an individual’s behavior. Poor behavior left to its own devices will continue the same path and reinforce the existing problems with deepening conflicts. With MI, therapists help individuals uncover their motivations and encourage change from within.

Psychodrama

Ingrained in our psyche are deep-seated traumas, belief systems, and memories. Despite our best efforts, these personal conditions influence our entire lives, existing just under the awareness of our consciousness. Psychodrama uses improvisation and theatrics to bring these conditions to the surface.

Surf therapy

Surfing offers nature, sunlight, and natural endorphins, all of which are beneficial for those struggling with mental health and substance abuse problems. Additionally, surfing is a positive way to manage anxiety and stress, and surf therapy allows clients to witness a spiritual experience as they heal through nature.

12 step facilitation therapy

Originally stemming from Alcoholics Anonymous’s 12 Steps, the 12 Step Program has been adapted to fit a myriad of addiction problems, including substance addiction. The 12 Steps Program teaches clients to lead a positive existence, connect with a higher power, and make amends with themselves for personal growth.

family therapy

Families are vulnerable to all sorts of internal, external, and generational tensions. Behavioral health conditions often heighten and highlight existing problems. With family therapy, clinicians strengthen support and transcend conflicts through guided participation.

Art therapy

Even though we tend to believe ourselves to be rational, human beings are quite emotional. Often, we have trouble articulating our feelings, and behavioral health conditions may make that process even more difficult. Art therapy enables us to channel our emotions through creative expression.

Cognitive-behavioral
therapy (cbt)

From the moment we’re born, our environments, parents, and experiences dictate how we think, believe, feel, and act. Traumatic events, behavioral disorders, and addiction can alter our perceptions. CBT realigns our belief systems while developing healthy coping mechanisms.

Dialectical behavioral
therapy (dbt)

Those suffering from mood and personality disorders struggle with emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT develops healthier patterns through a balance of acceptance, mindfulness, and tolerance strategies.

Solution-focused brief
therapy (sfbt)

Most therapies focus on our past, uncovering personal problems and negative belief systems that affect us to this day. SFBT is different. Instead of looking to the past, this therapy looks to the future. Prioritizing goals and the future, clients develop short-term positive change in the present.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy

We’re only aware of a small fraction of ourselves. While our consciousness tries to make sense of the world, our unconscious may thwart our efforts. Psychodynamic psychotherapy uses depth psychology techniques to uncover our unconscious patterns and so we are more free to choose a new path in life.

breathworks

Our physiological responses and emotions are intertwined, and breathing plays into our physical response to negative experiences. We may not often think of the power of breathing for our overall wellbeing. However, conscious, controlled breathing can positively impact physical, cognitive, emotional, and spiritual health.

Humanistic therapy

Humanistic therapy allows clients to be their authentic selves and use their abilities to shape a fulfilling life. Humanistic therapy is based on the belief that everyone has a unique way of seeing the world. Our viewpoints impact our choices and actions throughout life.

Neuroscience of addiction

Studies into neuroscience technology show that the brain grows throughout our entire lifespan. Addiction happens from repeatedly choosing to abuse substances, meaning the brain is reduced to an obsessive-compulsive state. Neuroscience in recovery uses new areas of the brain to implement positive changes in thinking patterns.
