  • Individual therapy at EBMC focuses on compassionate, connected, client-focused and effective support through a mindfulness lens. Individual issues are addressed by increasing awareness and clarity, building resiliency, growing inner and outer resources, and developing better coping mechanisms. Our therapists are committed to creating a new sense of inner strength, reduced suffering, and facilitated transformation. We believe that therapy is an effective tool for overcoming emotional and mental hardship. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or need help navigating the road ahead, EBMC therapy is here to help.

  • A relationship goes through many phases during its life cycle and it is normal to hit some rough patches along the way. The strength of a relationship is reflected in how the couples deal with rough patches and move ahead. Our approach toward couples therapy is oriented not only toward solving the problems the couple is facing with each other, but to supporting and reviving the feeling of love and affection they have toward each other. Being intimate with others is a rewarding experience and EBMC can offer support in navigating the more complicated and challenging parts of sharing your life with others. We work with couples of all configurations and sexual orientations.

    • Commitment

    • Intimacy

    • Infidelity

    • Cultural differences

    • Finances

    • Sexuality

    • Life transitions

    • Parenting

  • Families go through developmental stages just like individuals. It is common for family systems to experience difficulties making the transition from one stage to another, or to experience communication breakdowns, conflict, and other challenges. Whether it is your nuclear family or multi-generational, EBMC family therapy offers support to the whole family system-each member impacted- whether it is a new issue and/or an old wound. EBMC family therapists support families through issues such as:

    • Loss of a loved one

    • Separation/divorce/remarriage

    • Career changes

    • Addiction

    • Resolving Trauma such as child abuse and domestic violence

    • Reconciling family conflict

    • Treating self-harm: suicidality, cutting, anorexia/bulimia

    • Parent coaching/parenting skills

    • Transition from child to adolescent to young adult

  • Children and adolescents face unique challenges that can be profoundly stressful and seriously impact their development. Children and adolescents also process their experiences differently from adults. EBMC child and adolescent therapists incorporate other modalities in addition to talk therapy such as play, behavioral, art, and expressive art therapy. EBMC supports the family system as a whole. Our skilled and supportive therapists are here to provide conjoint family therapy, and collateral parent education/support as part of your child’s treatment plan.

  • Parenthood can be a wonderful yet challenging experience. It is common for parents to experience various difficulties as their family evolves over time, whether that is through the addition of new family members or various life events. EBMC parenting therapy offers support to the whole family system-each member impacted- whether it is a new issue and/or an old wound. EBMC therapists support parents through issues such as:

    • Collaboratively working with your partner

    • Working with your beliefs around parenting

    • Parenting conflicts or difficulties

    • Difficulties with step and co-parenting or creating a blended family

    • Supporting your child around their worry and mental health

    • Improving communication with your child

  • People often start medication or other types of treatment without a proper psychological evaluation. A proper assessment might include cognitive, personality, and diagnostic testing, as well as in-depth interviews from the patient and people who know the patient well. The proper treatment recommendations and medication choices usually require a combination of clinical expertise and the objective data that comprehensive psychological tests provide. If you’re curious about your personality, intelligence, memory, possible neuropsychological problems due to a brain injury or head trauma, then you might be a candidate for psychological testing. Assessments can also help guide your children and their academic career, such as by ruling out issues like learning disorders or ADD/ADHD. The wrong diagnosis can lead to unnecessary medications and misguided treatment.

    Our registered associate marriage and family therapists can administer initial screenings to help assess the need for comprehensive testing. Because such testing falls outside the scope of their training, we engage with independent contractors who have specialties in cognitive, personality, neuropsychological, and social-emotional testing.
