Types of Therapies

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) offers a more structured and short-term therapeutic approach. With CBT, you discover the connections between recurring thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) was originally developed to treat borderline personality disorder. Since then, it has also proven effective for various other mental health challenges, such as coping with overwhelming moods related to trauma or the urge to self-harm.

Exposure Therapy

Prolonged exposure (PE) is another research-backed therapy for PTSD and anxiety disorders, phobias, and OCD. Exposure Therapy involves systematically confronting and exposing yourself to things you’ve been avoiding. In time, you can recover the pieces of your life that trauma or anxiety took from you.

Psychodynamic Therapy

If you like the idea of traditional talk therapy, psychodynamic therapy could be a good choice for you. During a typical session, you delve into the story of your life and explore the impact of your past on your present with a therapist who poses relevant questions to nudge you toward increased self-awareness.

Interpersonal Therapy

There are many different kinds of therapy, and the best option for you will depend on your specific circumstances, personality, and goals. The fact that you’re doing research shows that you’re already on a positive path toward getting the support you need.
