Each option is backed by our team’s expertise, ensuring adaptability for residential or aftercare settings.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Key Applications: Anxiety, depression, OCD, and anger management.

Key Applications: Chronic stress, insomnia, and eating disorders.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

Key Applications: PTSD, domestic violence, and complicated grief.
Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT)

Key Applications: Anxiety, insomnia, and overall stress management.
Art Therapy
Primary Focus: Art therapy utilizes creative processes like drawing or sculpting to express and explore emotions that may be difficult to verbalize. It facilitates insight and healing by externalizing internal experiences, making it accessible for diverse cognitive styles.
Key Applications: Trauma, grief, and non-verbal processing needs.

The foundation of therapy at Reset Behavioral Health is rooted in empowerment, inclusivity, and scientific rigor, ensuring every session contributes to your holistic growth. We believe mental health thrives when treatments honor the individual’s cultural, emotional, and physical dimensions, which is why our modalities span from traditional clinical techniques to creative and body-centered practices. Key principles guiding our approach include:
Personalization at the Core
We tailor therapies based on thorough assessments, considering factors like your background, preferences, and specific challenges to maximize engagement and outcomes.
Integration of Science and Compassion
All options, such as DBT or EMDR, are evidence-based, yet delivered with empathy to build trust and facilitate breakthroughs.
Holistic Wellness Focus
Beyond talk therapy, elements like fitness programs and nutritional counseling address the mind-body connection, supporting conditions where physical health intersects with mental states.
Inclusivity for All
Our therapies are designed to affirm diverse identities, with trauma-informed care that reduces barriers for LGBTQIA+ clients and those from varied California communities.
Dynamic Adaptability
As you evolve, so do your therapies – we regularly refine plans to incorporate feedback, ensuring sustained relevance.
This philosophy transforms therapy from a routine into a catalyst for lifelong resilience, drawing on our team’s collective expertise.
Our therapy options play multifaceted roles in recovery, addressing immediate relief while laying the groundwork for future well-being. For instance, CBT and DBT equip clients with tools to interrupt cycles of negative thinking or impulsive behaviors, proving invaluable for anxiety and personality disorders by fostering self-efficacy. Holistic modalities like MBSR and somatic experiencing go into the physiological aspects of stress and trauma, helping release pent-up tension that talk therapy alone might miss, particularly in PTSD cases.
Creative therapies such as art and music therapy offer outlets for expression when words fall short, aiding in grief counseling or schizophrenia management by enhancing emotional literacy and reducing isolation. Group-based options, including psychoeducation and relapse prevention groups, build community bonds, countering the loneliness often tied to conditions like depression or bipolar disorder. Meanwhile, practical supports like sleep hygiene and nutritional counseling optimize daily functioning, indirectly boosting mood stability and cognitive clarity.
Embedding therapies into your overall care at Reset Behavioral Health begins with a seamless admissions process, where our specialists evaluate your needs to curate a blended plan. Whether you’re in our residential program for intensive immersion or transitioning to aftercare, therapies like individual sessions or family therapy are woven in to provide continuity. For example, someone addressing OCD might start with EMDR for underlying trauma, then incorporate group therapy for peer accountability, all monitored through regular progress reviews.
