Other focus areas
Evidence-based approaches
DBT
Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Pairs acceptance with change. Especially useful when emotions feel too big to ride out without acting on them.
CBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Spots the thought-feeling-action loops that fuel urges, then rewires them with practical skills you take into the moment.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. A structured trauma therapy that helps the brain re-file painful memories so they stop hijacking the present.
MI
Motivational Interviewing. A collaborative conversation that strengthens your own reasons for change rather than arguing you into it.
ACT
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Stops fighting hard feelings and instead points your action toward what you actually value.
Group therapy
Group Therapy. A small facilitated circle where people working on similar struggles practice naming what is hard, hearing themselves in others, and learning skills together. The room is the medicine.
Family systems
Family Systems work. Brings the people closest to you into the recovery picture, since urges and relationships rarely live in separate boxes.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention. Practices noticing urges without acting on them, building the gap between trigger and choice.
Psychodynamic
Psychodynamic Therapy. Explores the older patterns and unconscious dynamics underneath the surface behavior. Slower than skills-based work, deeper on the questions of why you reach for the thing you reach for.
