Therapy Options

CBT is commonly used to treat various mental health issues, including anxiety disorders, depression, and PTSD, and typically involves teaching clients practical skills and coping strategies to manage their challenges.

Dynamic Deconstructive Psychotherapy (DDP) is an approach that integrates psychodynamic principles with a focus on deconstructing the narratives and meanings that individuals attach to their experiences. It emphasizes understanding the underlying emotional conflicts and the subjective meanings of life events, aiming to facilitate self-exploration and insight. This therapy fosters a deep exploration of a person's internal world and relational dynamics, helping clients to reconstruct their narratives in a way that promotes healing and personal growth.  

Studies with DDP have shown that this type of therapy is highly effective in reducing symtpoms of anxiety, depression, anger, and suicidality. DDP can be beneficial for those that have found traditional talk therapy has not helped.

Couples therapy, also known as marriage counseling or relationship therapy, is a form of psychotherapy aimed at helping couples address and resolve issues in their relationship. It provides a safe space for partners to communicate openly about their feelings, concerns, and conflicts, with the guidance of a trained therapist.

The therapy may involve exploring underlying relationship dynamics, improving communication skills, and fostering emotional intimacy, ultimately aiming to strengthen the partnership and enhance mutual understanding. Couples therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues, including communication breakdowns, infidelity, and differing values or goals.
