Our Approach to Adult Therapy
Therapy is tailored to your needs, goals and circumstances. We focus on creating a supportive, collaborative space where you can better understand what you’re experiencing and work toward practical, meaningful change.
Depending on the concern, therapy may draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), while also helping you build coping skills, challenge unhelpful patterns and strengthen confidence.
Therapy May Include
CBT-based strategies
Practical tools to understand and change unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns.
ERP for OCD when appropriate
Exposure and Response Prevention may be used when OCD is part of the concern.
Practical coping and behaviour change strategies
Build healthier ways of responding to stress, difficult emotions and recurring patterns.
