Our Approach
An Evidence-Based Approach to Individual Therapy
Every person is different, so every treatment plan at Greenpoint is different too. Our therapists draw from a range of modalities, including:
-
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Focused on concrete strategies to examine thinking, understand behaviors, and learn new ways to approach challenges and relationships.
-
Dialectical-Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
A therapy model that relies on coaching and skills to increase awareness of strong emotions and uses skills to reduce strong reactions and unwanted behaviors.
-
Psychodynamic Therapy
A therapy approach that works through investigating past experiences and unconscious roots of thoughts and behaviors.
-
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
An approach to treatment that looks at the mind as interactions between parts, guided by a core or central self.
-
Mind-Body Approaches
Approaches that rely on grounding, awareness, and meditation to increase a mind-body connection.
-
Creative Approaches
Creative tools for evidence-based clinical approaches that can help with navigating a range of challenges beyond what can be spoken aloud.
-
Buddhist Psychotherapy
A therapy approach that combines Buddhist philosophy with Western psychology for mindfulness and to alleviate harm.
