Psychotherapy
Our Approach
Psychotherapy is often combined with other treatments, including medication, behavior management, rehab therapy, music therapy, and art therapy. The relationship that develops between the therapist and the client is very important. The person must feel comfortable, safe, and understood. This trusting environment makes it much easier for the person to express their thoughts and feelings and use the therapy helpful.
Psychotherapy Assessments
As part of the initial assessment, a qualified mental health professional or psychiatric nurse practitioner will determine the need for psychotherapy. This decision will be based on the person’s current problems, history level of development, ability to cooperate with treatment, and the type of interventions most likely to help with the presenting concerns.
