Individual, Family, and Trauma Therapy

Licensed therapists on staff offer individual, family, and trauma therapy. Individual therapy treats the youth in isolation from the family in cases where the youth no longer has contact with the family or can benefit from one-on-one attention and support from the therapist. Individual therapy helps youth identify specific areas for growth and healing, apply the necessary strategies to achieve those ends, and receive encouragement and feedback on their treatment.

Family therapy, with its recognition of the family as a whole system and of the youth’s interdependence with family members, promotes familial understanding and collaboration. As families uncover the source of their problems they can learn to support the youth and work proactively on minimizing or altering the conditions that contribute to the youth’s negative behaviors. TwoCor offers family therapy to foster good communication skills, giving family members the tools they need to successfully resolve their own problems.

Trauma therapy includes EMDR and CPT. EMDR treats a host of emotional and psychological difficulties caused by traumatic events ranging from traumatic childhood life experiences, assaults, and natural disasters, to automotive accidents.  EMDR focuses on the perceptual components (affective, cognitive, and somatic) of the event that are maladaptively stored in the limbic system (emotions and memory) of the brain in order to expedite the accessing and processing of disturbing events in a new and less distressing way.

CPT helps youth understand and reconceptualize traumatic events in a way that reduces the ongoing negative effects on their current lives. Because the emotions associated with trauma are often difficult to cope with, sufferers avoid traumatic triggers as a strategy to function in day-to-day living. Unfortunately, this limits their opportunities to process traumatic experience and gain a more adaptive understanding of it. CPT helps youth examine and evaluate their meta-emotions and beliefs generated by the trauma.
