therapy modalities

Therapy modalities refer to the different approaches or techniques therapists use to assist individuals in addressing their mental health or emotional challenges. Common modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on changing negative thought patterns; Psychodynamic Therapy, which explores the influence of past experiences; and Humanistic Therapy, emphasizing personal growth and self-acceptance. Other modalities include Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotional regulation and mindfulness, as well as group therapy for support and shared experiences. Each modality has its unique benefits, and the choice often depends on the individual's needs and preferences.
