Individual Therapy

Types of Therapy We Offer:

  • ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)

  • CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)

Who It’s For:
People navigating personal challenges such as:

  • Anxiety or panic

  • Stress and burnout

  • Depression & consistent low mood

  • Mood disorders (e.g., bipolar disorder, cyclothymia)

  • Boundary-setting and people-pleasing

  • Low self-esteem

  • Life transitions

  • Trauma or grief

  • Relationship Improvement

  • Identity and self-exploration

Therapy doesn’t just help—it transforms.

Research shows that over 75% of people who engage in therapy report real, lasting improvements in their mood, relationships, and overall functioning. Evidence-based approaches like CBT, EMDR, and ACT are proven to reduce anxiety, depression, and trauma symptoms. And psychodynamic therapy—often misunderstood as "just talking"—has been shown to create deep, long-term change that continues even after therapy ends.

But here's something even more important:
The #1 predictor of success in therapy isn’t the method—it’s the relationship between you and your therapist.

That’s why at A Better Life Therapy, we don’t just focus on technique. We focus on people.
We’ve built a team of compassionate, highly trained clinicians who genuinely care about helping you feel seen, supported, and empowered.

Because healing happens when you're not just treated but truly understood.

 

Couples Therapy

 

Types of couples therapy we offer:

  • Gottman Method
    Uses structured assessments, communication tools, and practical exercises to strengthen connection

  • Relational Life Therapy (RLT)
    Combines direct coaching, relational accountability, and gender/social dynamics work

  • PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy)
    Integrates attachment theory, neuroscience, and nervous system regulation to improve trust and responsiveness

  • Premarital Counseling
    Covers communication, values, finances, conflict styles, sex, family planning, and expectations to support long-term success

  • Intensive Couples Therapy
    Offers extended sessions over 1–3 days to break through gridlock, repair trust, and create rapid shifts in the relationship dynamic

Who it’s for:

Couples who are:

  • Arguing more than they’d like

  • Struggling to communicate or feel heard

  • Navigating betrayal + trust issues

  • Feeling more like roommates than partners

  • Going through a major life transition (parenthood, moving, career shifts, etc.)

  • Considering separation but open to repair

  • Hoping to strengthen their connection and future together

  • Trying to improve their sex life

  • Feeling disconnected

  • Committed to maintaining their connection

  • Consciously Uncoupling

Couples therapy works—and often faster than people expect.

Research shows that 70–75% of couples who engage in evidence-based therapy report significant improvement in relationship satisfaction and communication. Approaches like the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) are not only backed by decades of research, but also offer tools you can start using right away.

One fun fact? The way couples talk during a 15-minute conversation can predict divorce with over 90% accuracy—but with support, those patterns can be changed.

Even better? The earlier couples start therapy (before things feel unfixable), the more quickly they tend to grow and reconnect.

Family Therapy

 

Approaches We Use:

  • Eco-systemic Family Therapy

  • Structural Family Therapy

  • Narrative Family Therapy

  • Contextual Family Therapy

  • Systemic Family Therapy

Who It’s for:

Families experiencing:

  • Blended Family Challenges

  • Communication Issues

  • Major life transitions (a move, new sibling, etc)

  • Divorce/Separation

  • Parent-child conflict

  • Adult family relationships

  • Behavioral/Emotional Concerns

  • Grief, Loss, and Trauma

  • Navigating Medical Conditions

 

What we know…

Healthy families aren’t perfect—they’re intentional.

Studies show that family therapy improves communication, reduces conflict, and boosts emotional well-being for children, teens, and parents alike. It’s especially effective in helping families navigate transitions like divorce, illness, relocation, or launching a teen into adulthood.

Here’s a surprising stat: When a teen receives individual therapy, outcomes improve even more when parents are involved in family therapy too.

Family therapy helps everyone feel heard, supported, and better equipped to move forward together—as a team.
