What to expect
A therapy session is 60 minutes ($200 self-pay). We start by understanding what brings you in and what you want to be different, then work in a way that fits you. Therapy can stand alone or sit alongside medication management.
How G&B approaches it
G&B draws on established approaches, described plainly:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) — working with the thoughts and behaviors that keep a problem going.
- Behavioral Activation (BA) — rebuilding momentum through meaningful activity, especially helpful for low mood.
- Motivational Interviewing (MI) — resolving ambivalence and finding your own reasons for change.
- Problem-Solving Therapy (PST) — a practical, step-by-step way to tackle stressors.
- Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) — focusing on relationships and roles that affect mood.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) — building on what’s already working to reach specific goals.
- Relationship counseling — improving communication and connection.
“Integrative” here means therapy and (when appropriate) medication with attention to sleep, stress, and lifestyle.
