The therapeutic process is unique to each individual. Not all types of therapy may be a good fit for everyone. That being said, sessions at times may expand from the more traditional set-up of “talk therapy”. Treatment can also include music therapy, play therapy for children, or creative arts modalities. Together, we will discuss what may be appropriate for you and your family, and why.
Marriage and Family Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapy is all about relationships. People are constantly being impacted by their family and friends, environmental surroundings, and life experiences. Similarly, others in our lives are always being impacted by us. Individuals do not exist in a vacuum- and treatment is based around this idea. To improve our mental health, we must understand the many facets that make us who we are. Marriage and Family Therapy services are offered for individuals, couples, families, and groups.
Music Therapy
Music Therapy may sound like a new concept, but people have been using music to heal physical and cognitive injuries, create relationships, and work through trauma for years. This discipline can be particularly useful when working with individuals with physical or cognitive disabilities, relational struggles, trauma, individuals with dementia, those in a hospital or recovery setting, and within companies and organizations who are struggling with team building. Music is a transformative medium that can illicit old memories by gentle means, provide an alternate medium for topics that are difficult to discuss, or provide a means of communication for those who are no longer able to use words at all. Music Therapy services are offered for individuals and groups, at home or in a facility setting.
COUPLES THERAPY
Having a life partner can bring joy, warmth, and companionship to daily life. And, it is a balancing act! Each partnership has it’s own distinct uniqueness, and each individual develops and expresses their love differently. When intimacy struggles, jobs, and even children are added, maintaining connection with your partner can sometimes take strategic planning. Couples Therapy provides a space to work through some of the difficulties that arise in relationships, and allow individuals to communicate physical and emotional needs in a congruent manner.
Individual Therapy
Sometimes we need our own, personal space to reflect and process what has been happening in our lives. For many of us, it is rare that we get this individual time. Whether you are working through your own trauma, navigating relationship or family struggles, or figuring out how to set goals for yourself; Individual session may be the best fit. Individual sessions are structured both to provide validating support and space for processing and change.
