ACCEPTANCE AND COMMITMENT THERAPY (ACT)

Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is an action-oriented approach to psychotherapy that stems from traditional behavioral and cognitive behavioral therapy. You will learn to stop avoiding, denying, and struggling with inner emotions and, instead, accept that these deeper feelings are appropriate responses to certain situations that should not prevent you from moving forward in your life. With ACT, you will begin to accept hardships and commit to making necessary changes in your behavior, regardless of what is going on in your life and how you feel about it.

COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY (CBT) AND CBT COPING SKILLS

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that treats problems and improves mood and functioning by modifying emotions, behaviors, and thoughts that cause you to hurt.

CBT focuses on solutions by encouraging clients to challenge and change distorted cognitions and destructive patterns of behavior.

CBT is often used to treat negative thinking patterns (such as catastrophizing or mind-reading) and negative core beliefs (such as thinking, "I am not good enough, or "I'm not worthy of love").

DIALECTICAL BEHAVIOR THERAPY (DBT) AND DBT COPING SKILLS

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is a cognitive behavioral treatment that emphasizes individual psychotherapy to monitor and reduce problem behaviors (or behaviors that impact your ability to create the life you want for yourself) and facilitate coping skills training for mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. DBT is used to treat chronic suicidality and symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder as well as substance dependence, anxiety, relationship conflicts, stress, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and eating disorders.

SAFE AND SOUND (SSP) FOR KIDS AND ADULTS

The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) was developed by Stephen Porges in conjunction with Polyvagal theory to help kids and adults regulat their nervous system and feel less anxious/stressed by listening to music that re-attunes the inner ear to non-threatning frequencies and sounds. Please click here to learn more.

*We currently do not have an in-house SSP provider, however we work closely with SSP providers to ensure clients who will benefit from this cuttign-edge serice can receive it as part ofh their treatment at Nourish.

POLYVAGAL-INFORMED AND MOVEMENT-BASED THERAPIES

At Nourish, we believe in the natural, organic healing powers of the body. We are trained in polyvagal theory and the science of safety in the nervous system. This means we are uniquely trained to help you re-learn how to relax, rest and re-engage the innate relaxation and restoration process of your body. Not only is this theory infused into all of the therapies above, we also offer movement-based, yoga-inspired movement therapy sessions to help you process overwhelming, difficult or traumatic emotions or as an add-on treatment to your current therapy journey.

Polyvagal informed embodied movement will return you to a state of safety and presence in the body so that new information can be integrated into your brain, body and nervous system and new behaviors can take hold in your daily life.

SOUND HEALING AND RESTORATIVE YOGA THERAPY

Crystal singing bowls resonante at different frequencies, permeating the barriers of the body and calming the nervous system. This is offered as a stand alone session or infused into your existing sessions to aid in processing of difficult material.

Yoga therapy sessions use traditional yogic asana (postures), pranayama (breathing practices), dharana (stillness and concentration practices) as well as yogic philosophy (non-harming, self-reflection, contentment practices, radical acceptance, wakeful open-hearted presence, radical self-compassion, etc) to help you reconnect to yourself amongst the stress and busy-ness of everyday life in capitalist society.

During these sessions, the therapist will use props such as blocks, blankets, bolsters, eye pillows and weighted sandbags in conjunction with polyvagal theory to orient you to safety and experience deep, integrating rest. Other practices may include guided relaxation, meditation, mindfulness, yoga nidra, body scanning and embodied presence.
