What Is Psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy, often referred to as talk therapy, is a collaborative treatment method that involves structured conversations between a patient and a licensed therapist (Licensed Clinical Social Worker or Licensed Mental Health Counselor). Our aim is to help individuals understand and manage their emotions, behaviors, and thoughts by exploring underlying issues and developing coping strategies, no matter the issue our patient is dealing with. Talk therapy can address a wide range of mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship struggles. There are several approaches to therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and more.

CBT is a widely used and evidence-based approach that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors. It helps patients develop healthier, more positive, ways of thinking and acting. This method of therapy is particularly effective for anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders.

Originally developed for borderline personality disorder, DBT combines CBT techniques with mindfulness practices. It aims to help patients regulate emotion, improve relationships, and cope with distress.

This approach explores past experiences to understand current behavior and emotions. It often involves examining early childhood experiences and their impact on present life, helping patients gain insights and resolve internal conflicts.

These therapies, including Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), integrate mindfulness practices to help patients stay present and manage stress, anxiety, and depression.

This approach means working with a therapist to understand the impact of trauma on an individual’s mental, emotional, and physical well-being. It incorporates knowledge about trauma into all aspects of treatment to promote healing and recovery.
