Depression can affect all of us at various times in out lives. Reducing perseverating thought, adopting a healthy lense to look through in life and gaining skills in grounding and balance can reduce depression regardless of the cause. CBT/DBT and on occasion EMDR are used to reduce symptoms

One of the most difficult stages of life can be adolescents. Creating a safe place to share with unconditional positive regard and a focus on healthy living habits, communication skills and an increase in self esteem, allowing for connection and increased appropriate peer connection and academic success, can aid in this life transition. CBT/ DBT are most commonly use to support our adolescents.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy treatment that was originally designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories (Shapiro, 1989a, 1989b). Shapiro’s (2001) Adaptive Information Processing model posits that EMDR therapy facilitates the accessing and processing of traumatic memories and other adverse life experience to bring these to an adaptive resolution.
