Psychotherapy can help with a variety of difficulties, such as the impact of trauma, medical illness, loss of a loved one, or specific mental disorders like depression or anxiety. Psychotherapy is not a precise technique; it is an attitude, a way of being with the patient. Finding the right therapist can help you heal and learn constructive coping mechanisms to deal with the issues in your life.

There are many different types of therapy; our practitioners utilize some of the following:

Strength-based therapy is a positive counseling technique focusing on your internal strengths and less on failures. This focus sets up a positive mindset that helps you build on your best qualities, identifies your strengths, improves resilience, and can help your expectations become more honest and  reasonable.

Supportive psychotherapy helps patients deal with emotional distress and everyday challenges, including active listening, empathy, advising, comforting, and reassuring.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on finding answers in the present time and exploring a patient’s hope for the future to find quicker resolutions for the patient’s identified problems. This method operates from the belief that patients know what they need to do to improve their lives and, with the  appropriate coaching and questioning, can find their best solutions.

Dream therapy is a technique used to explore and analyze dreams. Most forms of dream therapy involve journaling and keeping a dream journal. The benefits of dream therapy include conscious and subconscious balancing, insight into mood, exploring symbolism, sparking creativity, addressing chronic nightmares, positive self-care rituals, and internal conflict awareness. Patients may get to know themselves better by assessing the symbolism experienced in the subconscious state.

Therapy is a highly supportive and customized treatment process often combined with medication. Therapy improves emotions and behaviors and helps create positive changes in the brain and body.
