CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)

CBT is a goal orientated form of therapy that focuses on addressing the patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to emotional distress. It's a highly effective treatment for a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress.

Solution-Focused Therapy

SFBT is a short term therapeutic approach that focuses on identifying what's working in your life and building on those successes. Rather than revisiting the past, it helps you envision the future you want and develop practical steps to achieve it.

Somatic therapy

Somatic therapy is based on the understanding that emotional experiences are stored in the body. Through gentle techniques that focus on physical, sensations, movement, and breathwork, this therapy helps you reconnect with your body, release tension, and heal from trauma or distress.

Afrocentric Therapy

Afrocentric therapy integrates traditional therapeutic techniques with an emphasis on cultural identity, spirituality, community and collective healing. This approach honors your unique heritage, recognizing the cultural and systemic challenges faced by Black individuals, families and communities.

Coming Soon EMDR therapy

EMDR therapy focuses on helping you reprocess traumatic or distressing memories so they no longer trigger intense emotional or physical reactions. Through guided eye movement or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR facilitates the brain's natural healing process, allowing you to reframe negative thoughts and emotions connected to past events.

Spirituality integrated Therapy

Spirituality Integrated Therapy combines evidenced based therapeutic techniques with spiritual guidance, ensuring that your emotional-well being is nurtured alongside your spiritual growth. This approach honors the role of faith, values, and spiritual beliefs in your healing journey, recognizing that these elements can profoundly shape your identity, purpose, and resilience.
