All Modalities & Therapeutic Approaches
At our practice, we believe therapy should be as unique as you are. We offer an integrative, client-centered framework that draws from several evidence-based therapeutic modalities to support your personal goals, comfort, and pace.
Rather than applying a rigid, one-size-fits-all protocol, our clinicians draw from established clinical frameworks to help you navigate individual concerns, process emotion, reframe unhelpful patterns, and strengthen relationships.
Approaches We Draw From
Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) - Informed Practice
Focus: Emotional processing, attachment security, and self-connection.
EFIT adapts the principles of attachment theory for individual therapy. It focuses on helping you safely process deep emotional experience, transform distressing emotional patterns, and foster a secure, compassionate relationship with yourself.
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) - Informed Practice
Focus: Relationship cycles, emotional bonding, and secure connection.
EFCT is an attachment-based framework for couples. An EFCT-informed approach helps partners identify negative communication cycles, express underlying emotional needs, and work toward a safer, more securely attached relationship.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) - Informed Practice
Focus: Inner parts work, self-compassion, and internal harmony.
IFS views the mind as an interconnected system of "parts" (such as overthinking, perfectionism, or inner criticism) led by a core, grounded Self. An IFS-informed approach helps you explore these internal dynamics with curiosity rather than self-judgment to build internal balance.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Strategies and Approaches
Focus: Thoughts, behaviors, and practical coping tools.
CBT explores the interconnected relationship between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Drawing from CBT strategies helps identify and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns while providing structured tools to manage stress, anxiety, and daily challenges.
Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)-Informed Therapy
Focus: Somatic emotional processing, relational safety, and healing.
AEDP is a transformation-oriented framework rooted in neurobiology and attachment. An AEDP-informed approach focuses on processing difficult emotions in real-time alongside a supportive therapist, helping you move through painful experiences toward emotional resilience.
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) - Informed Strategies for OCD
Focus: Gradual exposure, reducing compulsions, and managing uncertainty.
ERP is an evidence-backed framework used for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). An ERP-informed approach involves safely and gradually confronting anxiety-provoking thoughts or triggers while learning to resist performing compulsive behaviors.
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) - Informed Practice
Focus: Trauma processing, stuck points, and cognitive reframing.
CPT is an evidence-based framework designed to help evaluate and reframe unhelpful beliefs related to past traumatic events. A CPT-informed approach utilizes these tools flexibly to help you process trauma-related thoughts and regain a sense of safety and control.
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) - Informed Approaches
Focus: Psychological flexibility, mindfulness, and core values.
ACT combines mindfulness skills with self-acceptance. An ACT-informed approach helps you make space for uncomfortable thoughts or feelings rather than struggling against them, while taking meaningful action aligned with your personal values.
Narrative Therapy Frameworks
Focus: Personal story, identity, and externalizing problems.
Narrative Therapy views people as separate from their problems. Using a Narrative framework helps you examine the stories you carry about your life, separate your identity from distress, and rewrite unhelpful narratives using your personal strengths.
Gottman Method Informed Couples Therapy
Focus: Communication, conflict resolution, and shared meaning.
Gottman Method approaches draw from extensive empirical research on relationships. Incorporating Gottman-informed principles provides practical tools to improve communication, increase intimacy, navigate recurring conflict, and build shared life goals.
