Types of Therapy
At One Mind Therapy, we offer various forms of therapy. Our therapists have studied and trained in different modalities to offer the right care for individuals and couples in California.
CBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a structured, evidence-based therapy that aims to recognize and change unhelpful thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors. It’s proven helpful in working with anxiety, depression, OCD, and many other behavioral issues.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing helps individuals process and integrate distressing memories. It’s been proven most effective in treating trauma and PTSD, but research also supports its use with anxiety and grief.
Psychedelic Integration
Psychedelic Integration helps individuals apply insights, emotions, and experience from psychedelic experiences in a safe way. It can help process difficult emotions, support behavioral change, and support growth with a variety of difficulties.
Humanistic
Humanistic therapy focuses on self-awareness, authenticity, and personal growth. It is most commonly used with self-esteem issues, relationship difficulties, identity exploration, and finding meaning in life.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Research has found in recent years that online therapy can be just as effective as in-person therapy. When it comes to mild-to-moderate mental health conditions like stress, anxiety, and depression, online therapy is understood to be equally as effective.
When it comes to more severe psychiatric disorders, in-person therapy is slightly more effective.
-
Online therapy is much more convenient than in-person therapy. You don’t need to drive anywhere, schedule extra time, or be limited to therapists in your town or city. You also can attend therapy from the comfort of your own space.
-
Yes. Therapists are legally and ethically required to abide by confidentiality guidelines set by California’s Board of Behavioral Sicences (BBS). Sessions are secure, not recorded, and private. You are responsible for confidentiality on your end, such as using headphones if you wish, finding a private space, and not using a public internet connection.
The same exceptions to confidentiality apply to online therapy as in-person therapy. Therapists have an ethical obligation to report to authorities in specific cases. These include court subpoenas, abuse/neglect of children or vulnerable adults, and imminent risk of harm to self or others.
-
Your therapist knows very well the feelings of a first therapy session. They will make it as comfortable and easy as possible. You may get to know each other better, review treatment goals, and discuss some of your history/background. You don’t need to have anything figured out. The first session is an opportunity to get to know each other, see if you’re a good fit, and begin creating a plan to move forward.
-
After your initial consultation, your therapist will likely send you some documents to review. You also will want to choose a time and space for your therapy session that works. Find somewhere relatively private, quiet, and safe. Some clients choose to bring a notebook or journal to sessions, but it is not necessary.
-
You will see different licenses with our therapists, as well as at other practices. An LMFT is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Despite the name, most LMFT’s in California work with individuals as well. However, LMFT’s may have better training in dealing with relationships, couples, and family systems.
An LCSW is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. There’s more overlap than difference with an MFT, but education for an LCSW has slightly more focus on social systems, communities, and broader mental health care.
-
Yes. As long as you are in California, you can see a therapist who has an active license in California. We sometimes have clients from the Bay Area who are traveling to San Diego or Los Angeles, and it’s no problem to do a session.
The benefit of this is accessibility. You don’t need to find a therapist in your county or city in California. When you do travel out of state, the therapist can only see you if they hold an active license in that state.
-
We recommend reading through about sections to see if a therapist clicks with you. If you read the One Mind Therapy team bios and someone feels like a good fit, reach out. You also can contact us, tell us a bit about yourself, and we can recommend a therapist for you. If we don’t have the right person to work with you, we will help you find an option that fits your needs.
