The therapies we offer at Unmind
Counseling
Counseling provides a supportive environment where you can talk openly about your thoughts and feelings. It’s great for when you need a safe space to discuss personal issues, manage stress, or navigate life changes.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. It’s especially effective for addressing anxiety, depression, and stress. If you're looking to develop practical skills to manage day-to-day challenges, CBT can be a great fit.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a structured therapy that helps process and integrate distressing memories. It’s particularly useful for trauma and experiences that have left a lasting impact on your well-being.
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT)
MBCT combines traditional cognitive therapy with mindfulness strategies. It’s designed to help prevent the recurrence of issues like depression by encouraging a greater awareness of thoughts and feelings.
Short-term psychodynamic psychotherapy
This approach explores how your past experiences shape your current behavior and emotions. It’s useful for understanding deeper, underlying issues in a time-limited framework.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
DBT focuses on teaching skills to manage emotions, improve relationships, and cope with distress. It’s particularly beneficial for those who experience intense emotional responses.
Solution-focused brief therapy
Solution-focused brief therapy is a goal-oriented approach that helps you envision and achieve your future aspirations. It’s ideal if you’re looking for a quick, practical way to solve specific problems.
Compassion-focused therapy (CFT)
CFT aims to help you develop self-compassion and reduce self-criticism. It’s beneficial for improving self-esteem and managing feelings of shame and self-doubt.
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
ACT encourages you to accept your thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty for them. It’s great for enhancing psychological flexibility and committing to meaningful life changes.
Dynamic interpersonal therapy (DIT)
DIT focuses on the patterns in your relationships and how they affect your emotional health. It’s useful for understanding and improving your interactions with others.
Choosing the right therapy
Deciding on the right therapy can depend on your personal preferences, past therapy experiences and the specific challenges you’re facing. Consider speaking with one of our practitioners that best fits your needs. If they are not suitable for you, they can always guide you in the right direction and make recommendations about next steps.
Remember, the first step is reaching out, and we're here to support you along the way.
