Individual Therapy for Adults

We provide a variety of evidence-based treatments for depression, bipolar disorder, and related disorders, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and interpersonal therapy. Treatment helps clients improve their mood, react to painful emotions more effectively when they occur, see themselves more fairly, and re-engage with the people and activities that give life meaning.

Anxiety disorders, such as generalized anxiety disorder, phobia, and panic disorder, can be devastating; however, they are also among the disorders that show the best response to treatment. Cognitive behavioral therapies, which involve techniques such as challenging unrealistic fears (cognitive restructuring) and facing the things that you typically wish to avoid (exposure) provide tremendous benefits for many forms of anxiety. Therapy can also teach clients to relate differently to fearful thoughts when they occur, so that anxiety has less power to restrict them from approaching the things that make life fulfilling.

Humans are deeply social beings; therefore, disconnection, conflict, betrayal, loss, or rejection in important relationships are among the most painful human experiences. Evidence-based therapies (such as emotion-focused therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy) help clients resolve long-standing interpersonal pain, see their current interpersonal world more clearly, and apply new skills to have their needs met in relationships.

Our psychologists and therapists have specialized training and expertise in treating anorexia, bullimia, binge eating disorder and ARFID. Therapy can include individual treatment (e.g., cognitive behavioral therapy), family-based treatment, and care coordination with medical providers.

Traumatic experiences can be shattering, with both acute and long-term effects. We treat post-traumatic stress disorder using evidence-based treatments, including Cognitive Processing Therapy and Prolonged Exposure. These interventions help people face their traumatic experiences, make sense of what they’ve been through in new ways, and return to the things that make life worth living, even after devastating loss. We also provide treatments that address how surviving a complex history of traumas and stressors shape behavior and emotion, such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Emotion-Focused Therapy.

We provide top-line, evidence based treatment for OCD, including exposure and response prevention, which helps free clients from being stuck spending their life managing troubling, repetitive thoughts.

Therapy can provide hope for people who have spent a long time stuck in the same patterns of behavior or emotion. Therapy invites clients to see the pain in their life from a new perspective, connect to their emotional experiences with self-compassion, and learn new strategies for meeting their needs. Evidence-based treatments for personality disorders include dialectical-behavioral therapy and mentalization-based therapy

We provide evidence based treatment for clients struggling with addiction or looking to change their patterns of substance use. Cognitive-behavioral therapies can help clients with a variety of goals, from cutting back on to eliminating addictive behaviors or substance use.
