Integrative Therapeutic Approach

Dr. Shibl utilizes a multi-faceted, integrative approach to therapy, drawing upon evidence-based techniques to create a personalized treatment plan for each individual.

Our therapeutic modalities include:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns and develop healthier coping strategies to manage emotions and behaviors.
• Trauma-Focused CBT: This specialized form of CBT is designed to help individuals process and heal from past traumatic experiences.
• Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT): PRT focuses on helping individuals understand and manage chronic pain by addressing the underlying emotional and psychological factors that contribute to pain perception.
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT emphasizes acceptance of difficult thoughts and feelings, while promoting values-driven actions and a greater sense of psychological flexibility.
• Mindfulness-Based Practices: Mindfulness techniques, such as meditation and deep breathing exercises, are integrated into our therapy to help individuals cultivate present-moment awareness and reduce stress and anxiety.
• Person-Centered Therapy: This approach emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and the inherent capacity for growth within each individual.
• Brief Solution-Focused Therapy: This goal-oriented therapy focuses on identifying solutions and building on existing strengths to achieve desired outcomes.
• Existential Therapy: Existential therapy explores fundamental questions about life, meaning, and purpose, helping individuals find greater authenticity and meaning in their lives.
