ACT uses an educational approach to teach client's to "just
notice", accept, and embrace their life experiences. ACT
introduces the client to strategies of 'mindfulness',
'acceptance', 'commitment' and 'behavior change' to enhance
psychological flexibility.
Adlerian Therapy psychotherapy counseling
Alfred Adler was among the co-founders of the
psychoanalytic movement along with Freud and others. He was
the first major figure to break away from psychoanalysis to
form an independent school of psychotherapy and personality
theory. The goal of Adlerian Therapy is to challenge the
clients' premises and to encourage goals that are socially
useful and help them to feel equal.
Behavioural Analysis psychotherapy counseling
The term 'behavior analysis' coined by B. F. Skinner,
focuses on the science of behavior as a subject in its own
right while relegating the concept of mind to philosophy.
Body-Centered Therapy
Body Centered Therapy Also known as mind-body or somatic
therapy, combines the strengths of talk therapy with
bodywork to help people become more aware of their bodily
sensations as well as their emotions, images and behavior.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) psychotherapy counseling
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy is a form of psychotherapy
that emphasizes the important role of thoughts and
perception in shaping feelings and behaviors. CBT uses a
problem-solving approach that teaches people skills to
change their thinking and manage their reactions to
stressful people and situations.
DBT or Dialectical Behavioral psychotherapy counseling
Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) is a psychosocial
treatment developed by Marsha M. Linehan specifically to
treat individuals with borderline personality disorder
along with other diagnoses. In the 1990's Linehan advocated
that psychosocial treatment of those with Borderline
Personality Disorder was as important in controlling the
condition as treatment with pharmaceutical drugs.
Emotion Focused Therapy psychotherapy counseling
EFT is a short-term approach to couples therapy formulated
by Drs. Sue Johnson and Les Greenberg in the 1980's.
Relationship distress is a very common reason for seeking
therapy and is strongly associated with depression, anxiety
disorders and addictions as well as generally undermining
family health.
Family Systems psychotherapy counseling
Family Systems therapy is a form of psychotherapy that
considers a family as an organism or system with its own
internal rules, patterns of functioning, and tendency to
resist change. The treatment involves all the members of a
nuclear or extended family and may be conducted by a pair
or team of therapists of both genders for a short-term
treatment.
