Our licensed therapists are trained in multiple techniques to ensure the right fit for you.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This combines changing both thoughts and behaviors.
Eye-movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps people heal from past traumas in a safe, effective, evidence-based format.
Mindfulness in therapy has been shown to reduce suffering from a variety of mental health concerns. It focuses on finding ways to increase concentration, stay out of the past, and stay out of future "what-if" worries.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy. While Thriving Lives does not currently offer a DBT program, some of its therapists have been extensively trained in the DBT process and skills. DBT teaches practical, real-world skills to help with managing intense and/or long-lasting emotions.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. ACT helps a person identify their individualized values so that they can better move past their cognitive obstacles which are keeping them from achieving their goals. It combines CBT, Mindfulness, and Values work.
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy recognizes the importance of understanding why a mental health concern has arisen, instead of just treating the symptoms.
Some of our therapists have done advanced coursework in trauma studies and continually advance their knowledge and skill-set in the latest trauma education.
This type of therapy utilizes play (drawing, crafts, games, pretend people, etc.) for children who do not yet have the capability to sit and discuss their psychological distress. Through play, a therapist can identify themes of particular strengths and stressors and help a child work through their current struggles and heal from past events.
