Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Highly effective, evidence-based form of psychological treatment that focuses on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is a structured, short-term therapy that helps individuals develop skills to address current problems and decrease symptoms. It's widely used to treat a variety of mental health issues, phobias, and stress, teaching individuals coping strategies for dealing with different life situations. CBT empowers individuals to take control of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, leading to lasting positive changes in their
mental health and overall well-being.

Play Therapy Techniques: Play Therapy utilizes the therapeutic power of play to help children express what is troubling them when they do not have the verbal language to express their thoughts and feelings. Through play, therapists can help children learn more adaptive behaviors when there are emotional or social skills deficits. This approach offers a safe and comfortable environment for children to work through traumatic events, develop problem-solving skills, and learn about themselves and the world.
DBT-Informed Therapy: Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) informed therapy is a cognitive-behavioral approach that emphasizes the psychosocial aspects of treatment. This modality focuses on teaching skills in four key areas: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. The aim is to help individuals manage their emotions and interactions in healthier ways.
ACT-Informed Therapy: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) informed therapy is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies, together with commitment and behavior change strategies, to increase psychological flexibility. For children and teens, ACT helps them to accept their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty for them, and commit to actions that align with their values, thereby improving emotional resilience and well-being. This approach can be particularly useful in treating anxiety, depression, and stress by promoting acceptance, mindfulness, and personal values.
