Begin Your Journey Toward Better Mental Health

Your decision to enter counseling is an opportunity to turn a problem into a new understanding. Beginning therapy can be the first step toward being the person who you truly want to be! Therapy is a way to overcome barriers, fears, and obstacles to achieve what you desire as your set goals.

Through mental health counseling at Thrive Counseling Services, you’ll be able to define what continues to get in your way of finding your strengths, discovering your happiness, conquering your anxiety, improving your time management, coping with your relationships, mastering your goal setting, and feeling in control of life the way you want to!

Therapy can be a difficult process, and you can expect at times that uncomfortable emotions may occur. It is at these times during therapy that you may want to stop, but your therapist will encourage you to discuss these feelings when they arise—this is often where the most important growth happens.

Building Blocks of Relationships

Evidence-Based Psychotherapy Approaches

Psychotherapy is the practice of talking about what is affecting you in achieving the goals you want. In therapy, you will work together with your therapist to set goals and seek solutions in achieving them. At Thrive Counseling Services, we use several different types of evidence-based therapy approaches to ensure you receive the most effective mental health counseling for your unique situation.

Therapists at Thrive use proven approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Rational-Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Gestalt, Existential, Trauma-Informed CBT, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), EMDR, which both utilizes eye movement to help process trauma.

We can also discuss a referral for a medication evaluation if you desire. I Thrive can work closely with your doctor, as effective treatment is often accomplished by utilizing both talk therapy (psychotherapy) combined with pharmacological therapy (antidepressants/anti-anxiety medications).

You can read more about these approaches by clicking on the Therapy Types link below. ART has a direct link to its own page with videos explaining this innovative trauma therapy approach.
