Types of Therapies
CBT is an evidence-based therapy that focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns that influence behavior and emotions. By addressing these thought patterns, CBT helps clients develop healthier and more constructive ways of thinking, leading to improved mental health and better emotional regulation. It's particularly effective for depression, anxiety, and stress management.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
DBT is an evidence-based therapy designed to help people with emotional dysregulation by learning about the triggers that lead to reactive states and applying specific skills to deal with these situations. It combines strategies like mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness to empower clients to lead more balanced and fulfilling lives. Maritza provides informed DBT. Adherent DBT involves individual therapy, skills group, and phone coaching.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
ACT is another evidence-based therapy that encourages clients to acknowledge their thoughts and feelings, rather than fighting them or feeling guilty. Through ACT, clients learn to stop avoiding, denying, and struggling with their inner emotions. Instead, they are encouraged to see these feelings as natural internal events and focus on aligning their actions with their core values. This therapy is effective for treating a variety of mental health disorders and helps build psychological flexibility, an important skill for adapting to life's challenges.
