We provide a range of evidence-based therapy services to support adults who experience behavioral or emotional difficulties. Common concerns include:
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for adults who experience high levels of anxiety, depression, ADHD or general difficulty in areas of emotion regulation. In CBT, therapists work directly with clients to teach emotion identification and coping skills. Clients will practice each skill in session and in “real life” in between sessions. These practice sessions are also called exposure sessions. CBT has very strong research support in the treatment of multiple forms of anxiety, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Phobias, Separation Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). CBT is also considered an evidence-based treatment for depression and other mood disorders as well as adult ADHD.
Mindfulness approaches and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for adults who experience anxiety, depression or other behavioral and emotional difficulties associated with avoidance or inflexibility. ACT is an evidence-based form of therapy that guides clients in ways to live a meaningful life consistent with their values by learning mindfulness skills and other techniques to decrease “experiential avoidance” and increase the ability to be present with and accepting of difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT has a strong research base for adults struggling with multiple forms of anxiety, depression and other mood-related concerns.
Biofeedback is a non-invasive evidence-based treatment technique that uses signals from the body to provide information about the body’s response to stressors and relaxation tools. Your therapist will begin by conducting an assessment that provides information about your body’s particular response to stress. You will learn more about how stress affects things like your muscle tension, breathing rate, and skin temperature. Then you will learn various relaxation strategies and lifestyle changes that can reduce stress and increase overall feelings of well-being. Finally, your therapist will provide guided monitoring and feedback on the use of these strategies.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy designed to help you move beyond past experiences and reclaim your peace of mind. Originally developed to treat PTSD, EMDR has grown into a proven approach for helping people manage trauma, anxiety, depression, phobias, grief, and more. Instead of relying only on talk therapy, EMDR taps into your brain’s natural ability to heal using gentle, guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation. Here’s how it works: Together, you and your therapist will identify the root of the issue, then help your brain reprocess the memory in a way that reduces its emotional charge. The result? You’ll feel lighter, more in control, and able to respond to life from a place of calm and confidence—not fear or pain. Whether you’re new to therapy or have tried other approaches without success, EMDR offers a fresh path toward relief and lasting change.
We are committed to grounding all practices in the best available research in areas of clinical psychology and we tailor all treatment plans to each client. Finally, we believe that the best care is provided when providers are connected and communicate in strategic and thoughtful ways. To do this we work closely with medical professionals and other treatment providers to ensure consistency in therapeutic approaches.
