Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based psychological treatment widely used to help individuals manage depression and anxiety. CBT focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, helping people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns that contribute to low mood, excessive worry, and emotional distress. Through practical, skills-based strategies, CBT supports individuals in developing healthier coping tools, improving daily functioning, and increasing emotional resilience. Extensive research shows that CBT leads to meaningful improvements in quality of life and is often as effective as - or more effective than - other forms of therapy or medication, making it a trusted and well-supported approach for treating depression and anxiety.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is an evidence-based approach that helps individuals build psychological flexibility - the ability to stay present, open, and engaged with life even during difficult thoughts or emotions. Developed by psychologist Steven C. Hayes, ACT focuses on helping people move away from struggling against their inner experiences and instead learn new ways to relate to them. Using six core processes - acceptance, cognitive defusion, present-moment awareness, self-as-context, values, and committed action - ACT supports individuals in clarifying what truly matters to them and taking meaningful steps toward a values-driven life. Rather than trying to eliminate discomfort, ACT empowers people to live with greater purpose, resilience, and freedom, even in the presence of challenges.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a type of talk therapy based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) that is specially designed for people who experience emotions very intensely. DBT is a structured approach that teaches four core skill areas - mindfulness, distress tolerance and acceptance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. Through guided lessons, clients learn practical tools and then apply these skills in daily life to better manage emotions, handle stress, improve relationships, and build a life that feels more balanced, meaningful, and fulfilling.

While we do not offer a full, comprehensive DBT program, our therapists are knowledgeable in DBT principles and skill-based interventions and are able to integrate and teach DBT skills to support clients in their therapy work.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that helps individuals heal from trauma and distressing life experiences by reducing the emotional impact of painful memories. Using guided bilateral stimulation - such as eye movements, sounds, or tapping - EMDR supports the brain’s natural ability to reprocess memories that have become “stuck,” allowing them to be integrated in a healthier way. This structured, eight-phase approach addresses past experiences, current triggers, and future coping, and does not require detailed discussion of the trauma, making EMDR an effective and well-tolerated treatment for trauma, anxiety, and depression.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a brief, evidence-based psychotherapy that helps individuals quickly process traumatic and distressing memories using guided eye movements and imagery techniques. ART works by allowing the brain to reprocess difficult experiences while replacing negative images with positive, preferred ones chosen by the client - often without the need to verbally relive the trauma in detail. Through a structured protocol and bilateral stimulation, ART helps reduce emotional distress and related symptoms of trauma, anxiety, and depression, frequently achieving meaningful relief in just a few sessions.

The Gottman Method is a research-based approach to couples therapy developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, grounded in decades of scientific research on what makes relationships succeed. Using the Sound Relationship House framework, this method helps couples strengthen communication, deepen emotional connection, and manage conflict in healthy, productive ways. Couples learn to identify and replace negative interaction patterns - such as criticism, defensiveness, contempt, and stonewalling - with skills that foster trust, empathy, intimacy, and shared meaning. The Gottman Method provides practical, evidence-based tools that support lasting relationship satisfaction and resilience.

As part of our Ketamine and Spravato integrative care, our therapists work closely with clients after their medical treatments to provide ongoing integration therapy. While Etherios Therapy oversees the medical administration of ketamine or Spravato, our therapists help clients process insights, emotions, and experiences that arise during treatment. This collaborative approach ensures that the benefits of Spravato/ketamine-assisted therapy are fully supported, helping clients translate these experiences into lasting emotional growth, improved coping, and meaningful change.
