Art TherapyArt therapy has clients express themselves through creative mediums such as drawing, painting, collage, coloring, or sculpting. Clients can interpret their subconscious world that is expressed in their art which could lead to a better understanding of their feelings and behavior. Artistic talent is not a prerequisite for art therapy as it’s not as much about the end result as much as it is about the process. The therapist looks for meaning in the creative choices of the work and the clients’ inner world. This therapeutic method enables clients to express their inner thoughts and feelings through creative expression rather than just talking about them.

Body-Mind PsychotherapyBody-mind psychotherapy is an integrative approach to psychological treatment that draws from both psychotherapeutic and somatic/body-based approaches. It emphasizes the interconnection between physical, emotional, cognitive and spiritual aspects of being. This approach seeks to help individuals explore how physical sensations, emotions, thoughts and beliefs influence their behavior and well-being. Through this exploration, individuals can gain insight into how the body and mind interact to create patterns of behavior, and how those patterns can be changed to promote healing and wellness.

Dance / Movement Therapy (DMT)Dance Movement Therapy (DMT) is a psychotherapeutic approach that uses movement as a medium for self-expression, exploration, and healing. It is based on the belief that the body and mind are interconnected, and that the body is a source of knowledge and wisdom. Through the practice of DMT, individuals are encouraged to explore movement in order to gain insight into their emotional state and gain insight into the underlying causes of their difficulties. The goal of DMT is to help individuals identify, process, and integrate their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in order to improve their overall well-being.

DreamworkModern dreamwork asserts that the only person that can make meaning of their dream is the dreamer, which is what separates dreamwork from dream interpretation. In dreamwork, the practitioner is a guide in the exploration of the dream, with the client making meaning of the dream for themselves. The reason the practitioner is only a guide is because thoughts, emotions, as well as meaning of symbols are deeply personal and subjective. Dreams can be used to uncover hidden feelings and beliefs, develop self-awareness, and gain insight into problems and potential solutions. Dreamwork is often paired with other therapeutic modalities.

Expressive Arts TherapyExpressive Arts Therapy is particularly beneficial for clients who struggle with describing what they are feeling verbally. Through imagination and creation of different art forms, clients are able to interpret and communicate their inner world and catalyze healing. Expressive arts therapy can involve the use of multiple modalities, such as visual arts, music, movement, drama, storytelling, poetry, and play. It is used to help individuals of all ages, including children and adults, to explore their feelings, reconcile emotional conflicts, foster self-awareness, manage behavior and addictions, develop social skills, improve reality orientation, and solve problems.

Filial TherapyFilial therapy is based on the idea that children learn best through their relationships with their parents and other caregivers. In filial therapy, the practitioner works with the child and parent(s) together, teaching the parent(s) specific skills and techniques to use with their child. These may include active listening, reflective communication, and other strategies designed to help parents better understand and respond to their child's needs and emotions. The goal of filial therapy is to help parents become more attuned and responsive to their child, and to create a more positive and supportive family environment. Filial Therapy encourages parents to become their child's primary therapist, helping them to develop a stronger relationship through play. This type of therapy has been used to help children with a variety of issues, from anxiety and depression to disruptive behavior and learning disabilities. It is a powerful way to help a child feel more connected to their parents and to the world around them.

Play TherapyPlay therapy is an evidence-based, developmentally appropriate form of intervention used to facilitate emotional, cognitive, and social growth in children. Play therapy is based on the premise that play is the child's natural medium of self-expression and can be used to assess and help a child work through difficult emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. The goal of play therapy is to help children develop the skills and abilities to navigate life stressors, and build self-esteem. During treatment, the therapist creates a comfortable, safe environment (a playroom) for the child to play with as few limits as possible. The toys in the playroom are intended to encourage the child to express his or her feelings and develop healthier behaviors. The child’s “play” with these toys serve as the child’s symbolic words, which may be difficult to express otherwise.
