Modalities
Learn more about the different types of therapeutic treatments that are offered by our therapists.
Psychodynamic Therapy is an in-depth form of talk therapy focused on building insight into your relationship with yourself, others, and the external world. Psychodynamic therapies focus on exploring unconscious motivations, early life experiences, and patterns in relationships through the therapeutic relationship.
Speaking freely about whatever is on your mind to address your most pressing issues, fears, or desires. You'll learn to analyze and resolve any current issues through exploration of self and past.
We offer a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), which is particularly beneficial for individuals and couples seeking to improve their emotional intelligence and relationships.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a present-focused form of therapy that focuses on identifying the way you form relationships, maintain, and act in relationships with yourself and others. Originally developed for couples therapy, EFT helps individuals and couples identify emotional patterns, learn to regulate emotions and more accurately identify needs, and re-wire painful patterns of relating.
With your therapist, you'll look at past patterns and work through any anger, fear, or loss of trust—coming out the other end able to connect with others in a way that feels true, unburdened, and genuine.
With the support of our therapists, you will have the opportunity to explore, understand, and reshape your emotional patterns, enhancing your ability to create genuine, fulfilling connections with yourself and others.
Our therapists are trained in a range of therapeutic modalities, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), to provide comprehensive care tailored to individual needs.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on learning to manage difficult or intense emotions and to decrease conflict in relationships. The underlying philosophy of DBT hinges on the important dialectic that we are all doing the best we can, and we have the ability to be better. DBT specifically focuses on providing CBT-like therapeutic skills in four key areas—mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
At Two Chairs, we offer comprehensive Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as one of our key counseling modalities for therapy, tailored to support our clients' journey towards improved mental well-being.
ACT uses a mix of acceptance, mindfulness, and behavior change strategies to improve mental well-being and increase psychological flexibility. ACT is a very experiential type of therapy that uses in-session exercises, metaphor, language, and physical movement to focus on living a valued life instead of getting stuck in needing to "get rid" of suffering.
One of the biggest skills gained through ACT is listening to your own self-talk—the way you verbalize and understand things like past trauma, physical limitations, past relationships, or anything else on your plate. And, with that understanding, choosing how to move through it—either by change or by acceptance.
With this method, our therapist can enable clients to better understand their mental landscapes, empowering them to lead more fulfilling lives and control their personal challenges.
We're committed to providing top-tier psychotherapy in San Francisco, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a transformative approach to mental health care.
CBT is a here-and-now approach to examining how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and impact our overall well-being. CBT focuses on identifying maladaptive thinking and behavioral patterns and implementing specific strategies to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, etc.
CBT is an active, problem-focused approach that helps to directly challenge various cognitive distortions and change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior.
We hope to make it easy to find a therapist, so we can equip our clients with the tools necessary to navigate and challenge their own thought patterns, leading to a healthier mental state.
