Relationships

 Relationship counseling can be beneficial to couples who are looking to strengthen their emotional connection, in all stages of their relationship. Therapy sessions are held with both couples and is a supportive place to discuss issues and solutions to better strengthen your relationship.  Relationship counseling can also be those relationships which are meaningful, such as friendships, family interactions, and other meaningful attachments to others which help support our lives in a meaningful way. 

APPROACHES OFFERED

  • TF-CBT (Trauma Focused - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy):  TF-CBT is a treatment model that incorporates various trauma-sensitive intervention components. It aims at individualizing TF-CBT techniques to children and their circumstances while maintaining therapeutic relationship with both the child and parent. TF-CBT treatment can be used with children and adolescents who have experienced traumatic life events. It is a short-term treatment (typically 12-16 sessions) that combines trauma-sensitive interventions with cognitive behavioral therapy strategies. It can also be used as part of a larger treatment plan for children with other difficulties. TF-CBT includes individual sessions for both the child and the parents, as well as parent-child joint sessions.

  

  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy):  The CBT model is based on the combination of the basic principles from behavioral and cognitive psychology. It is different from historical approaches to psychotherapy, such as the psychoanalytic approach where the therapist looks for the unconscious meaning behind behaviors and then formulates a diagnosis. Instead, CBT is "problem-focused" and "action-oriented", meaning it is used to treat specific problems related to a diagnosed mental disorder and the therapist's role is to assist the client in finding and practicing effective strategies to address the identified goals and decrease symptoms of the disorder. CBT is based on the belief that thought distortions and maladaptive behaviors play a role in the development and maintenance of psychological disorders, and that symptoms and associated distress can be reduced by teaching new information-processing skills and coping mechanisms.


  • Integrative Psychotherapy:   Integrative Psychotherapy embraces an attitude towards the practice of psychotherapy that affirms the inherent value of each individual. It is a unifying psychotherapy that responds appropriately and effectively to the person at the affective, behavioral, cognitive, and physiological levels of functioning, and addresses as well the spiritual dimension of life.  


  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): EMDR is a treatment that allows patients to heal from trauma and emotional distress caused by disturbing life events.  It is an 8 phase treatment process in which the patient recalls the distressing events and the therapist directs the patient in one type of bilateral stimulation.  It has been found to help patients heal from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), at an accelerated rate compared to talk therapy alone.
