Integrative Therapy

Integrative therapy is the integration of elements from different schools of psychotherapy in the treatment of a client. An integrative therapist will first assess their client and then match proven treatment techniques to their unique situation. As it is a highly individualized approach, integrative therapy can be used to treat any number of issues, including depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. Research has shown that tailoring therapy to the individual client can enhance treatment effectiveness. Think this approach might be right for you?

A holistic approach to therapy that combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic schools of thought depending on the unique needs of a given client. I integrate somatic/mind-body techniques, attachment work, and trauma-based interventions. I also integrate interventions to address high sensitivity and neurodivergence.

I most often work from an integrative perspective, which means I use techniques from psychodynamic, interpersonal, and cognitive behavioral theories. I use the techniques that are most appropriate for my individual client's situation, and the ones that appeal to them the most.

— Ginny Kington, Psychologist in Duluth, GA

I'm a lifelong learner, and a well-developed, skillful therapist. In years of professional development, I've received various levels of training in the following modalities: CBT, DBT, ACT, MI, SE, EMDR, NVC, IFS, psychodynamic, and group therapy. I borrow tools and insights from all these therapies and integrate them for my client's benefit with my primary grounding and advanced training in SCT and SAVI, which together offer a broad and deep framework for healing and growth.

I believe that every individual is unique. As a therapist, I compile a treatment plan that complements and supports you. This is why I will pull from multiple theoretical orientations and interventions to ensure that you not only have a plan that works for you, but is also empirically supported to ensure the best outcome.

— Wendy Howell, Licensed Professional Counselor in Glendale, AZ

There's no one-size-fits-all approach. One thing most people get wrong is that they don't realize how unique they are. A lot of the work I do is collaboratively painting a clearer picture of who you are, what you've been through, and forging the strength (in a nurturing environment) to wipe your lens clean from distortions that are protective yet limiting.

— Maya Herrington, Psychotherapist in Skokie, IL
 

Although you sometimes feel disconnected from yourself, you were born to be connected. The problem is that some parts of you have fallen out of integration. I was trained by the co-creators of an integrative assessment and treatment model called the Expressive Therapies Continuum, which helps me guide helping professionals to connect with all aspects of their physical, emotional, and intellectual selves.

CBT is great but doesn't solve everything. I have learned and practice many different styles of treatment. I think of them as parts in a tool box that I can pull out depending on what the patient presents with. I regularly utilize attachment theory, acceptance and commitment therapy, psychodynamic concepts, strategic therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills, and positive psychology.

— Rebecca Scott, PsyD, Clinical Psychologist in Pleasanton, CA

Within my practice, I integrate elements from different schools of therapy depending on the needs of the client. For negative thought patterns, CBT is incredibly useful. For maladaptive behavior or thoughts, Parts Work can be wonderfully enlightening. I will always bring mindfulness into our sessions to help calm the mind but for some, trauma lives in the body which is where more somatic approaches like yoga, tapping, shaking, or EMDR come into play. I'm here to find what's right for you.

— Chrissie Bingham, Counselor in Milan, MI
