Brainspotting is becoming increasingly known as an effective trauma resolution therapy. Dr. David Grand has a website explaining the situation, and he just completed a fourth training in Boulder where there are a number of “brainspotters”

I recommend a separate posting for “EMDR for children” as EMDR for adults is vastly different.

Hi Noah,

Great site!

I’d like to suggest “Experiential Therapy” and “Wilderness Therapy” or “Adventure Therapy.” From the story of how this website got started, it seems you already know a bit about Wilderness Therapy. :)

Hi Noah, I’ve sent this to you by email but I wanted to post the same here to see if there is any feedback.

The list is filling out but getting long. A client perusing the types of therapy may find it daunting. How about using broader categories to group therapies that are similar. I think a search feature could be just effective and a list because groupings/categories would not pose a barrier.

Thanks for reading,
Lynn

In addition to my general psychotherapy practice, I practice Harm Reduction Psychotherapy, Substance Abuse Counseling and Addiction Recovery Psychotherapy. I believe these should be added to the list.

Life review. Appropriate for work with older adults and those who deal with them. Story telling is one of the most productive ways of helping people in this age demographic to deal with issues.

You have so many great theories listed, but I’d like to add Beck’s Cognitive Therapy, as I find that to be non-pathologizing and empowering to clients I’ve worked with on an individual basis. Separately, while I see family systems listed, I am trained as a structural family therapist and would love to add this powerful tool in helping families cope better with the tools they already possess (just not incorporating in the most effective way). Thanks for the option to offer these suggestions! Have a great day!

A system of therapy focusing on changing behaviors, the common language, and developing a personal, constructive value system.

In my experience, the general school of Energy Psychology (EP) is the fastest growing, and most exciting development in the field of psychotherapy to come along in the twenty+ years that I have been in practice.

Rapid Eye Technology (RET) is a closely related methodology. Both EP and RET are collaborative, non-pathologizing, strength-based, and empowering for clients and therapists. I feel professionally rejuvenated and more excited than ever about my profession and business since I expanded into RET and EP about ten years ago.

Warmly,
Debra
