Theoretical Approach

Our thoughts and emotions impact our behaviors and interactions with others. Between our environmental and social experiences, we have developed and or have automatic thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. Society has a lot of influence and say on what we do, how we interact, and how we think. The impact of these discourses can be heavy. Integration of techniques from CBT, EFT, SFBT and Narrative therapy have been effective in treating couples, families, and individuals. Treatment is unique to each client or client family.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

CBT addresses how thoughts & feelings affect behaviors. It helps break those cycles that are interfering and creating issues or more issues in their lives. With this approach, thought patterns, core beliefs are explored with the goal of challenging and changing those automatic negative thoughts and replace them with rational, realistic thoughts.

Emotionally Focused Therapy

This approach focuses on emotion awareness and regulation with the goal of improving emotional attachment, interaction patterns, & communication styles. The goals of EFT are strengthening the self, regulating affect, and creating new meaning.

Narrative Therapy

With the use of the techniques from Narrative Therapy, we are externalizing and minimizing the problem(s), utilizing our strengths, challenging old and unhealthy core beliefs, and changing the narrative of our lives.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy

This approach focuses on the here, now, and future. SFBT is strength-based, less processing the past, and less problem-talk. Clients are motivated, accepting of the inevitability of change, and goal oriented.
