Frequently Asked Questions
What is a "Modality"?
A modality is the specific set of tools and frameworks a therapist uses to treat their patients (e.g., CBT, EMDR, Gottman Method).
How do I choose the right therapy?
Consider your goals: Behavioral changes often benefit from CBT/DBT; trauma often requires EMDR or Somatic work; relationship issues benefit from Gottman or EFT.
Can my therapist use multiple modalities?
Yes. This is called "Eclectic" or "Integrative" therapy, where the provider blends different tools to fit your specific needs.
Are all therapists trained in all modalities?
No. Many modalities (like EMDR or Gottman) require years of specialized post-graduate training and certification.
Where can I find a specific type of therapy?
Use our search filters to select the "Tag" or "Specialty" that matches the modality you are looking for.
