Not all therapies are created equal.
When working to improve the quality of your life through therapy you have several options available to you. While most therapy types can be helpful, some types of treatment have been shown to be more effective, having better results in a shorter time. It can be very beneficial to understand what types of treatments have been shown through research to be effective for the issues that you may be experiencing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a therapeutic approach that has been shown to be very effective for the treatment of a variety of mental health issues and disorders, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma to name a few. I have been trained in many empirically validated cognitive behavioral therapies, including but not limited to general Cognitive Behavioral Treatment, Trauma Focused- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy for Posttraumatic Stress Disorders, Combined Parent Child-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Depression, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for OCD, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.
I believe evidenced based treatments when available are the most effective ways of addressing identified difficulties. I also understand that individual clients may be struggling with more than a single issue that may feel that a more eclectic approach within sessions to be the most helpful. Regardless of whether you are dealing with a single issue, or more complex constellation of issues the type of therapy you receive is important in making improvements to your life so choose wisely....
