  • Attachment-basedLooks at early bonds with caregivers and how they shape relationships and emotions now, and works toward a greater sense of safety and connection.

  • CoachingGoal-focused work on the present and future, such as career, performance or life changes, rather than treatment of a mental health condition.
  • Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)A structured, practical therapy that looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions affect each other, and teaches skills for changing unhelpful thinking and habits.
  • Culturally SensitiveTakes a person's culture, identity, background and values into account, and shapes the work so it fits their life.
  • EMDREye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. A structured trauma therapy in which a person recalls distressing memories while following side-to-side eye movements or taps.

  • Motivational InterviewingA collaborative style of conversation that helps people explore mixed feelings about a change and find their own reasons to make it.
  • MulticulturalRecognizes how culture, race, ethnicity and other identities shape experience, and makes them part of the work.
  • Neurofeedback
  • Person-CenteredA warm, non-directive approach: the therapist listens with empathy and without judgment, and trusts the person to find their own direction.
  • Reality TherapyFocuses on present choices and behavior, and on meeting needs such as connection and control in responsible ways.
  • Solution Focused Brief (SFBT)A short-term, goal-focused approach that spends less time on problems and more on what already works and the small steps toward what the person wants.
  • Strength-BasedFocuses on the strengths, skills and resources a person already has, and builds on them to meet challenges.
  • Trauma FocusedTherapy for people affected by trauma. Puts safety and pacing first, and helps process painful memories so they have less hold on daily life.
