Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT promotes a shift in how you relate to your thoughts and emotions. Rooted in functional contextualism, it teaches that the function of your internal experiences is more important than their form, as they aren't problems in themselves. Rather than trying to eliminate these feelings, ACT encourages acceptance, cognitive defusion, and mindfulness, all aligned with your personal values. By changing your relationship with these experiences, it helps you build a flexible and effective repertoire of responses, enhancing psychological flexibility to face life's challenges with resilience and balance.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you identify and modify dysfunctional thought and behavior patterns that contribute to emotional distress. Based on cognitive and behavioral principles, CBT uses structured, goal-oriented techniques to support you in developing adaptive coping strategies for challenges like anxiety, depression, stress, and other psychological difficulties. At our clinic, CBT is personalized to meet your specific needs, using proven methods to promote cognitive restructuring, behavioral change, and long-term well-being.
Couples Therapy
Couples Therapy is recommended when you and your partner are struggling to resolve conflicts or when the relationship no longer provides growth and well-being for both of you. Our approach begins with the goals and challenges you bring, focusing on strengthening your ability to solve problems and conflicts together, always respecting each person's individuality. The goal is to strengthen the relationship, improve communication, and foster mutual understanding, creating a solid foundation for a more balanced and fulfilling partnership.
EMDR
EMDR is a therapeutic approach that mirrors natural brain processes, similar to what happens during sleep in the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) phase. Based on sound physiological principles, this therapy helps you address trauma in a healthier way, easing the symptoms and distress these experiences often cause. By guiding you through eye movements while recalling traumatic memories, EMDR effectively reduces the impact of these events on your daily life, helping you regain emotional balance.
Family Therapy
Family therapy aims to improve communication and interaction among family members, addressing issues collaboratively. It considers the broader context of each individual (family, school, work), based on the principle that changes in one member affect the whole. Sessions may involve all family members or just some, depending on the situation. It is effective for conflicts, crises, relationship difficulties, and behavioral issues.
Group Therapy
Group therapy allows you to share your difficulties and experiences with others, helping to normalize symptoms and create a supportive environment. By participating, you’ll have the opportunity to address your challenges together with others, offering mutual support along the way. It also helps you feel a sense of belonging, reducing isolation and the stigma often associated with mental health struggles, while fostering personal growth through connection with others.
Schema Therapy
Schema therapy helps you identify and change deep-rooted patterns of thinking and behavior that may be affecting your emotions and These patterns, known as maladaptive schemas, often develop in childhood due to unmet emotional needs or a lack of boundaries. Through a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychoanalysis, and Gestalt therapy, this approach guides you in understanding these patterns and developing healthier ways to cope and thrive.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy explores how unconscious mental processes, shaped during childhood, influence adult behavior. By examining early experiences and relationships, therapy helps individuals recognize outdated defense mechanisms and adopt healthier coping strategies. This process leads to greater self-awareness, emotional well-being, and more effective relationships, enhancing quality of life.
