Integrative Psychotherapy
We pride ourselves on a collaborative and integrative model that helps the whole child, adolescent, or adult grow and heal in an emotionally, socially, physically, intellectually, and spiritually healthy manner. This approach considers your unique beliefs, values, diet and lifestyle in the individualized treatment planning of supplements and therapies. In addition to providing conventional prescriptions as needed, we provide psychosocial support which gives you lifelong skills and positive coping strategies known to reduce stress and anxiety and enhance happiness, peace, calm, and well-being. In turn, this allows you to reach your full potential, your wholeness.
We offer individual, child/adolescent, and couples therapy, including the following modalities:
Individual Therapy
As the name suggests, in individual therapy, a patient works one-on-one with a therapist on their own personal challenges and issues. Individual therapy can consist of one or several of the modalities of treatment listed below.
Couples Therapy
Also known as marriage and relationship counseling, Couples Therapy involves both partners in a relationship attending therapy together. The therapist works with the couple to identify and address communication issues, conflicts, relationship patterns, and other challenges they may be facing.
Imago therapy or Imago Relationship Therapy (IRT) is a specific style of relationship therapy designed to help conflict within relationships become opportunities for healing and growth. One core aspect of Imago Relationship Therapy is the Imago dialogue. This dialogue is a structured method, facilitated by a trained Imago therapist, which allows partners to gain understanding and increase empathy.
Family Therapy
When addressing family issues, our therapists encourage the whole family to work together so that everyone is on the same page. Instead of splitting into different rooms and talking behind each other’s back, we create ways for family members to share what’s going on and how to unite on divisive issues. Children and adolescents are no longer blamed, parents are not the “bad guys,” and we establish new, healthier ways to dialogue. Once communication and mutual respect between family members improve, families are better able to function as a whole — as each member is more invested in supporting others and strengthening the family unit.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a form of psychotherapy that treats problems and boosts happiness by modifying dysfunctional emotions, behaviors, and thoughts. CBT focuses on solutions, encouraging clients to challenge distorted thoughts and change destructive patterns of behavior.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
DBT is a type of cognitive behavioral therapy that focuses on improving mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotional regulation. It is an evidence-based practice for treating borderline personality disorder and suicidality, among other conditions. The main goal of DBT is to help individuals build skills and strategies to manage their emotions, improve interpersonal relationships, and develop a sense of self-worth.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a psychotherapy technique used to treat various mental health conditions, particularly post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The technique involves a series of guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, such as hand tapping or auditory tones, while the person focuses on distressing memories, thoughts, or images related to a traumatic event or negative life experiences. These eye movements or bilateral stimulation are thought to help reprocess the traumatic memories and reduce the emotional distress associated with them.
Guided Imagery and Music Therapy
Guided Imagery and Music (GIM) is an experiential method of healing to help one integrate and transform. It is a structured and client-centered approach that involves the use of carefully selected music and verbal guidance to evoke and support an inner journey of imagery and reflection. The music serves as a catalyst for the therapeutic process and creates a supportive and evocative atmosphere.
GIM can help an individual:
- Reduce stress
- Process their emotions, including trauma
- Tap into creativity
- See healing images
- Enhance a relationship to music
- Evoke inner wisdom
- Heighten a sense of well-being
- Promote psychological and spiritual growth
- Explore the many levels of consciousness
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is a form of talk therapy that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies combined with commitment and behavior-change strategies to increase psychological flexibility. The objective of ACT is not to eliminate difficult feelings, but to be present with what life brings us and move towards a patient’s deeply held values.
Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS)
The goal of IFS therapy is to help people identify and accept the different parts of themselves and heal the parts that are wounded. The grounding assumption is that there are no bad parts, only parts that have been forced into extreme roles. This therapy helps to bring clients into harmonious relationships with their parts and in turn, their whole system into better balance.
Somatic Therapy
Somatic therapy is a form of body-centered therapy that looks at the connection of mind and body and uses both psychotherapy and physical therapies for holistic healing. It works with present-moment awareness of sensation in the body and supports healthy expression and movement of energy and emotion.
Mindfulness-Based Psychotherapy
Mindfulness-Based Psychotherapy is a type of therapy that incorporates mindfulness practices such as meditation and breathing exercises. Using these tools, clients are taught how to break free from negative thought patterns so they can prevent depression and anxiety before they take hold.
Addictions Counseling
Our therapists provide specialized support for individuals dealing with substance use and behavioral addictions, combining evidence-based approaches with the integrative model at the core of the Wholeness Method.
