Therapy Modalities

Evidence-Based Approaches to Support Your Goals

At Genesis Counseling, we use a variety of evidence-based therapy modalities to support emotional well-being and long-term growth. Each approach offers different tools and techniques, allowing us to tailor treatment to your specific needs. While some clients benefit from a single approach, many therapy plans integrate multiple modalities to provide the most effective support.

Common Therapy Approaches We Use

We offer a range of therapy modalities designed to support different needs and preferences.

Our approaches include:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
  • Play Therapy Techniques
  • Art Therapy Techniques
  • Sand Tray Therapy
  • Gottman Method for Couples
  • Mindfulness-Based Therapy
  • Trauma-Informed Therapy
  • Solution-Focused Therapy

Each modality page provides more detailed information about how these approaches work and what they are best suited for.

How Modalities Are Used in Therapy

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Different approaches are used depending on the individual, the concern being addressed, and treatment goals.

For example:

  • CBT and DBT are often used for anxiety, stress, and emotional regulation
  • EMDR and trauma-informed therapy are commonly used for trauma and PTSD
  • Play therapy and sand tray therapy are often used with children
  • The Gottman Method is used in couples therapy

This flexible approach allows therapy to be both structured and personalized.

You don’t need to know which modality is right for you before starting therapy. Our clinicians will guide you in selecting the most effective approach based on your needs and preferences.
