Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is based on the idea that thoughts and perceptions influence behavior. Sometimes our thoughts and perceptions are clouded by emotions and/or distorted thinking. CBT aims to modify dysfunctional thoughts and behaviors by examining and questioning negative and/or irrational beliefs and utilizing healthy strategies to cope with these patterns.  

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is a form of CBT to treat trauma and PTSD. It explores how our thinking patterns about ourselves and our environment have been affected by the trauma, with emphasis on 5x themes often impacted by trauma: Safety, Trust, Power and Control, Esteem and Intimacy.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a more action-oriented approach to treatment. It is based on the notion that when we stop avoiding and struggling with our inner emotions and begin to accept these emotions as appropriate responses to situations, we can begin to accept our hardships and struggles while still committing to making necessary changes in behavior.

Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is an adapted form of CBT that incorporates elements of mindfulness skills including meditation and breathing exercises.
