How We Approach Brief Talk Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Supportive Therapy
Mindfulness-Based Techniques
CBT helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and connect them to feelings and behaviors. Sessions focus on practical strategies you can apply between appointments to respond differently to a specific stressor.
Supportive therapy provides a space to process what you are going through, be heard, and build on your existing strengths. It can be especially useful during a difficult transition or period of grief.
Brief mindfulness exercises can help you notice thoughts and physical stress responses with more awareness, making it easier to respond deliberately instead of reacting automatically.
Support for Life's Difficult Moments
Brief talk therapy tends to help most when there is a specific concern to work through, rather than an open-ended need for long-term therapy. That might mean adjusting to a major life change, working through a persistent source of stress, or wanting concrete tools for a particular pattern that keeps showing up.

A move, breakup, job change, or other transition that you have not been able to fully adjust to.
