A Personalized Approach to Mental Wellness
We believe that effective therapy is never one-size-fits-all. When you walk through our doors in our clinic at Virginia Beach or connect with us virtually, you’ll experience a therapeutic journey uniquely tailored to your specific needs, circumstances, and goals.
Our team of skilled therapists uses a diverse range of evidence-based approaches, including:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
The goal of cognitive behavioral therapy is to identify and change negative thought patterns that affect emotions and behaviors. This highly effective approach helps clients develop new perspectives and implement practical strategies to overcome challenges. CBT is particularly beneficial for addressing anxiety, depression, stress management, and various behavioral concerns.
Crisis Intervention
When life presents sudden, overwhelming challenges, our crisis intervention services provide immediate, focused support to help stabilize your situation and develop a path forward. Our therapists offer compassionate guidance during these critical moments, helping you navigate intense emotions while creating safety and stability.
Client-Centered Therapy
This humanistic approach places you at the center of the therapeutic process, emphasizing unconditional positive regard, empathy, and authenticity. You will feel truly heard and understood in our supportive environment, enabling you to find your own solutions and maximize your potential.
Emotionally-Focused Individual Therapy
Our emotionally focused individual therapy helps you identify and transform difficult emotional patterns. This approach creates deeper self-understanding and helps you develop healthier ways to process feelings, ultimately improving your relationships and overall well-being.
Faith-Based Counseling
For clients who wish to integrate their spiritual beliefs into therapy, our faith-based counseling services honor your religious values while addressing mental health concerns. This approach bridges psychological principles with spiritual perspectives, offering holistic healing that respects and incorporates your faith journey.
Mindfulness Therapy
Mindfulness practices help develop present-moment awareness, allowing you to observe thoughts and feelings without judgment. Our therapists guide you in cultivating mindfulness skills that enhance emotional regulation, reduce stress, and foster a deeper connection with yourself and others.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)
Instead of dwelling on problems, SFBT focuses on finding solutions. This goal-directed collaborative approach identifies your desired future and works backward to develop practical steps toward achieving those outcomes. It’s particularly effective for clients seeking focused, efficient progress in specific areas.
Skill Building
Developing practical life skills creates lasting positive change beyond the therapy room. Our skill-building approach equips you with concrete tools for managing emotions, improving communication, enhancing problem-solving abilities, and strengthening resilience for life’s ongoing challenges.
Interpersonal Therapy
Focused on improving relationships and communication patterns, interpersonal therapy helps address social difficulties, relationship conflicts, life transitions, and emotional struggles connected to how you relate to others. This approach fosters healthier connections and more satisfying interactions across all areas of life.
EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR helps people heal from trauma through a structured approach where clients focus briefly on traumatic memories while experiencing side-to-side eye movements or other bilateral stimulation. This process helps the brain reprocess difficult memories, reducing their emotional intensity. EMDR is highly effective for PTSD, anxiety, and other trauma-related issues, often producing results more quickly than traditional talk therapy.
ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)
ACT teaches clients to stop fighting against difficult thoughts and feelings and instead accept them as part of life. Rather than trying to eliminate psychological pain, ACT focuses on helping people identify what truly matters to them (values) and take effective action toward those values, even when uncomfortable feelings arise. Key components include mindfulness, acceptance, and committed action toward meaningful goals.
DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy)
DBT combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices to help people manage intense emotions and improve relationships. It teaches four practical skill sets: mindfulness (staying present), distress tolerance (coping with crisis), emotion regulation (managing feelings), and interpersonal effectiveness (healthy communication). Originally developed for borderline personality disorder, DBT is now used for many conditions involving emotional dysregulation, including depression, anxiety, and substance use.
EMDR DBT Trauma-Focused
We combine EMDR and DBT to help trauma survivors heal. While EMDR processes difficult memories through eye movements, Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches skills for managing emotions and improving relationships. In this approach, both mental and physical aspects of trauma are addressed, resulting in a stronger, more resilient you.
ACT + DBT
Our ACT and DBT combination provide effective tools for personal growth. ACT helps you accept difficult thoughts while living according to your values, and DBT offers practical skills for handling emotions and stress. Together, these approaches help you develop flexibility, emotional balance, and meaningful life changes.
Our therapists may integrate elements from multiple modalities to create the most effective treatment plan for your specific situation. Throughout your therapeutic journey, we continuously evaluate progress and adapt our approach to ensure you receive the most beneficial care for your evolving needs.
