Therapy Types and Modalities We Use

We offer a variety of evidence-based therapy modalities depending on your unique needs:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps explore and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It's especially effective for anxiety disorders, depression, and stressful life transitions.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

EMDR aims to help individuals process and heal from psychological trauma, using structured techniques to lessen the emotional impact of painful memories.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

IFS therapy views the mind as made up of parts, or sub-personalities, and helps individuals harmonize internal conflicts by fostering compassion and balance.

Psychodynamic Therapy

This therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious processes influence current behavior, helping clients develop deeper self-awareness over time.

Somatic Therapy

By focusing on the connection between mind and body, somatic therapy helps process trauma and emotion stored in the body to relieve pain and chronic stress.

Holistic Psychotherapy

We provide holistic therapy that considers emotional, physical, and psychological aspects of your health using a whole-person approach.

Brainspotting

Used to access unprocessed trauma in the brain, brainspotting works with your body's reflexes and memory systems to support deep emotional healing.

Common Questions About Therapy in El Dorado Hills

How do I choose the right therapist for me?

Start by identifying your goals—do you want to work on stress management, relationship issues, or trauma? Next, review therapists’ credentials (LMFT, LCSW, etc.), their modalities (like CBT or EMDR), and availability for in-person or online sessions.

Is therapy covered by insurance?

Many therapists charge on a sliding scale or accept insurance. Our team can help verify coverage and explore out-of-network benefits so therapy stays accessible.

What’s the difference between a therapist and psychologist?

Both provide mental health care, but a psychologist (PhD or PsyD) typically performs psychological testing and research, while a licensed therapist—such as an LMFT—offers counseling and psychotherapy tailored to everyday life challenges.
