CBT is like training your brain to work for you, not against you. It helps you notice unhelpful thoughts—like ‘I’m not good enough’ or ‘Everyone hates me’—and replace them with more balanced, realistic ones. It also teaches you ways to handle stress, anxiety, and tough situations so they don’t feel so overwhelming. Think of it like a mental toolkit that helps you feel more in control of your emotions and reactions.

IFS is a way of thinking about your mind like it's made up of different parts, kind of like a team. Some of these parts are helpful, like the part of you that wants to try your best or take care of others. But sometimes, other parts can feel like they’re getting in the way—like the part of you that feels anxious or angry when things aren’t going well. In therapy, we look at all these parts, understand why they act the way they do, and try to help them work together as a team. It’s all about getting to know these parts of yourself, making peace with them, and feeling more balanced and in control.

Expressive Arts Therapy is a way to use creativity—like drawing, painting, music, or even movement—to help you understand your feelings. You don’t have to be an artist or a dancer to do this. It’s not about making something perfect; it’s about expressing what’s inside in a way that words might not be able to. It helps you explore your emotions and find new ways to cope with things that are hard to talk about.

Solution-Focused Therapy is all about looking forward, not staying stuck in the past. Instead of focusing on problems, we talk about what’s going well and what you want to change. We explore your strengths and the small steps you can take to make things better. It’s about finding solutions that work for you, even if they’re small, so you can feel more in control and confident in handling challenges.

Attachment Theory is about how our relationships with the people closest to us shape the way we connect with others. There are different attachment styles—secure, anxious, avoidant, and disorganized—that explain how we react to people in our lives. Understanding your attachment style can help you figure out why you act or feel the way you do in relationships and how you can work toward healthier connections.

Motivational Interviewing is a therapy approach that helps you explore your feelings about making changes in your life. Instead of telling you what to do, the goal is to help you figure out what’s important to you and what might be holding you back from reaching your goals. It’s a conversation that helps you find your own motivation to make positive changes by looking at both the reasons you want to change and the reasons you might resist it. It’s all about supporting you in making decisions that feel right for you.
