Therapy approaches at this center
Here, counseling is available to individuals, couples and families, and it draws on evidence-based methods. Clinicians choose among cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR for trauma, hypnotherapy, solution focused therapy and trauma-specific work, based on what a client needs.
The approach builds on strengths and is trauma informed, and online therapy is available to those unable to come in person. Sessions happen 1-on-1 or with relatives present, and scheduled visits typically span about 30 days. If a therapist recommends a higher level of care, then the helpline can describe inpatient and detox options across Georgia.
