​DBT is a type of therapy often used to treat borderline personality disorder (BPD) and other mood disorders. It emphasizes the development of mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness skills.

​Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences, particularly those from childhood, influence current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It aims to bring unconscious conflicts and patterns to light, leading to greater self-awareness and insight.

IPT focuses on improving interpersonal relationships and communication skills to alleviate symptoms of depression and other mood disorders. It addresses issues related to grief, role transitions, interpersonal disputes, and interpersonal deficits.

​ACT combines mindfulness strategies with acceptance and behavior change techniques to help individuals live more meaningful and values-driven lives while learning to accept thoughts and feelings that are beyond their control.

​Family therapy involves working with families to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and address issues affecting the family system. It can be beneficial for families dealing with various challenges such as substance abuse, chronic illness, or behavioral problems in children.

Group therapy involves a small group of individuals working together with a therapist to address common concerns, share experiences, and provide mutual support. Group therapy can be effective for issues such as addiction recovery, trauma, and social anxiety.

These therapies, such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), incorporate mindfulness practices to help individuals develop greater awareness, acceptance, and resilience in managing stress, anxiety, and depression.

Art therapy utilizes creative expression, such as painting, drawing, or sculpting, as a means of communication and self-exploration. It can be particularly helpful for individuals who may find it challenging to verbalize their thoughts and emotions.

​

Therapists often employ an integrative approach, drawing from multiple therapeutic modalities to tailor treatment to each client's unique circumstances. Therapeutic interventions are not limited to the aforementioned.
