Evidence-Based Treatments and Approaches
We are committed to offering evidence-based treatments within an evidence-based practice model. Understanding what this means can help you feel more confident in the care you are receiving.
An evidence-based treatment is one that has been found to be safe and effective through rigorous scientific research, including randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews. These are not treatments that simply feel helpful or sound reasonable. They are treatments that have been tested, studied, and shown to produce meaningful, lasting improvement in symptoms and quality of life across large groups of people. When we say we use evidence-based treatments, we mean that the approaches our clinicians use have cleared a high scientific bar.
Evidence-based practice is a broader concept that goes beyond simply choosing the right treatment. It is defined by the American Psychological Association (2005) as "the integration of best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values." In other words, evidence-based practice means that our clinicians do not apply treatments rigidly or in a one-size-fits-all manner. They bring their clinical expertise, their knowledge of the research, and a genuine understanding of each client's unique circumstances, preferences, and goals to every treatment decision. The best care happens at the intersection of what the science supports, what the clinician knows, and what the client needs.
This commitment to evidence-based practice also means that our clinicians regularly monitor client progress, seek supervision and consultation when needed, and are willing to adjust the treatment approach if something is not working. We believe our clients deserve to know that their care is grounded in the best available science and delivered by clinicians who take their responsibility seriously.

Additionally, our therapists bring strengths-based, person-centered, and humanistic orientations to the evidence-based approaches we use. In practice, that means we pay attention to your existing strengths and resources, not only your symptoms or your diagnosis, and we keep your goals and values central to the work. Even when we are using a structured protocol, the direction of treatment is something we decide with you.
While evidence-based treatments are powerful tools for reducing symptoms and improving outcomes, the heart and foundation of effective therapy is the relationship between therapist and client. We place a high value on respecting our clients, on offering a safe and supportive space for growth, and on treating each client's needs, values, and goals as an invaluable catalyst for change.
