MODALITIES OFFERED
Our therapists are trained in a variety of therapeutic modalities, ensuring a personalized approach to each client. Here’s an in-depth look at the therapies we offer:
-
EMDR and ART are powerful therapeutic approaches for processing trauma and distressing life experiences. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements) to help clients reprocess traumatic memories, reducing their emotional intensity and allowing for healthier thought patterns. ART is a form of therapy that also helps clients rapidly resolve trauma and other difficult experiences. These therapies can be particularly effective for those dealing with PTSD, anxiety, and trauma-related disorders.
-
Addiction can take many forms, including substance abuse, alcohol dependence, or behavioural addictions (such as gambling or compulsive behaviours). Our therapists provide compassionate and non-judgemental support to help you manage and overcome addiction. We use evidence-based strategies to help you understand the root causes of your addiction, develop coping mechanisms, and create a personalized plan for recovery.
Addiction management therapy may involve individual sessions, family support, relapse prevention strategies, and mindfulness practices. Our goal is to empower you to regain control of your life and build healthier habits.
-
DBT is a structured form of therapy that focuses on building skills in mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Originally designed for individuals with borderline personality disorder, DBT skills are also effective for anyone who struggles with intense emotions, self-destructive behaviours, or relationship challenges. In DBT-focused sessions, you will learn practical strategies to manage difficult emotions, cope with stress, and improve your relationships. Our therapists provide a supportive environment to help you apply these skills to real-life situations, leading to greater stability and well-being.
-
ACT is a form of cognitive-behavioural therapy that encourages clients to accept their thoughts and feelings rather than fight them. ACT helps you identify your core values and commit to actions that align with those values, even in the presence of difficult emotions. This approach is effective for managing anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and stress-related disorders. Our therapists will guide you through exercises and mindfulness practices that promote self-acceptance and purposeful living.
-
Anger is a natural emotion, but when it becomes overwhelming or difficult to control, it can affect your relationships, career, and overall well-being. Our therapists provide compassionate and non-judgmental support to help you understand and manage your anger effectively.
We use evidence-based strategies to identify triggers, explore the root causes of anger, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan to help you regain control, communicate more effectively, and navigate challenging situations with calm and confidence. Our goal is to empower you to build healthier emotional responses and improve your overall quality of life.
-
CBT is one of the most widely used and researched forms of therapy for treating a range of mental health conditions. It focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. In CBT sessions, you will work collaboratively with your therapist to challenge negative thinking, develop healthier beliefs, and practise new behaviours.
CBT is particularly effective for treating anxiety, depression, OCD, and PTSD. Our therapists tailor CBT techniques to your specific needs, providing you with practical tools to manage your mental health and improve your quality of life.
-
Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) integrates principles from neuroscience, psychology, and social behaviour to promote healing and growth. This approach helps clients understand how their brain functions in relation to their experiences and relationships. By exploring the connection between mind, body, and relationships, IPNB can help you develop healthier patterns of thinking and behaviour. This is particularly beneficial for those seeking to improve their relationships, manage stress, and understand the impact of early experiences on their current functioning. Our therapists use IPNB principles to help you achieve greater emotional balance and well-being.
-
Play Informed Therapy is a unique approach that uses the power of play to help children and adolescents express their emotions and work through challenges. This modality recognizes that children often communicate their thoughts and feelings through play rather than words. Our therapists create a safe and engaging environment where children can explore their inner world, develop problem-solving skills, and build emotional resilience.
