Cognitive-behavioral therapy stresses the role of thinking in how we feel and what we do. It is based on the belief that thoughts, rather than people or events, cause our negative feelings. The therapist assists the client in identifying, testing the reality of, and correcting dysfunctional beliefs underlying his or her thinking.

The therapist then helps the client modify those thoughts and the behaviors that flow from them. CBT is a structured collaboration between therapist and client and often calls for homework assignments. CBT has been clinically proven to help clients in a relatively short amount of time with a wide range of disorders, including depression and anxiety.

Person-centered therapy uses a non-authoritative approach that allows clients to take more of a lead in discussions so that, in the process, they will discover their own solutions.

The therapist acts as a compassionate facilitator, listening without judgment and acknowledging the client’s experience without moving the conversation in another direction. The therapist is there to encourage and support the client and to guide the therapeutic process without interrupting or interfering with the client’s process of self-discovery.

Trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) helps people who may be experiencing post-traumatic stress after a traumatic event to return to a healthy state.

As part of our therapy for PTSD and trauma, we provide integrative models like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which is a compassionate treatment strategy. Watching the person practice mindfulness, which is at the core of DBT, evokes emotions that the individual is intensely feeling and those emotions capture his or her attention in the present moment. Mindfulness also helps in fortifying the person against stress. In additional to exercises to aid self-care and body care, we also practice meditation and our sessions nurture gentle yoga. All of these practices aid in the healing of the trauma in its most profound roots so that one can surpass their deprivations with full might, dedication and gentleness.

For clients with chronic pain, hypertension, heart disease, cancer, and other health issues such as anxiety, depression, and anger management, mindfulness-based sessions are a two-part therapy that aims to reduce stress, manage pain, and embrace the freedom to respond to situations by choice.

Mindfulness helps by reflecting on moments and thoughts without passing judgment. MBCT clients pay close attention to their feelings to reach an objective mindset, thus viewing and combating life’s unpleasant occurrences.

Multicultural awareness is an understanding and sensitivity of the values, experiences, and lifestyles of minority groups. Differences in race, culture, religion, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, are all tackled by Multicultural counseling.

In the counseling setting, the counselor recognizes that the client is different from the counselor and treats the client without forcing the client to be like him or her in a safe, comfortable, and accepting session.
