What methods do we use for therapy?

Having a warm, trusting therapy relationship is a vital component of therapy.   Treatment starts with proper assessment of difficulties to find the right solutions. Measurement of symptoms throughout therapy assesses progress. We use evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tailored to the particular blocks in your life.

​

What type of testing do we do? 

We do one component of psychological assessment: IQ testing for children.  IQ testing is often required for independent school admission and Advanced Academic Programs in area public school.
