Our Evidence-Based Treatments for Depression

At Emerge Mental Health, we use cutting-edge, research-backed therapies to treat depression effectively. Our licensed therapist is trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), tailoring each approach to your unique needs. Here’s how these therapies can help:

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT is ideal for individuals experiencing intense emotions or struggling with self-harm or suicidal thoughts. This therapy combines mindfulness, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance skills to help you manage overwhelming feelings and build a life worth living.
- Why it works: DBT teaches practical tools to navigate emotional storms, improve relationships, and foster self-acceptance.
- Best for: Teens and adults seeking skills to cope with intense emotions and impulsivity.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is one of the most widely used treatments for depression. It focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns that contribute to depressive feelings. By reframing harmful beliefs, you can develop healthier ways of thinking and behaving.
- Why it works: CBT empowers you to challenge distorted thoughts, reduce self-criticism, and take actionable steps toward recovery.
- Best for: Adults and teens looking to address negative thinking and build coping strategies.

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)

IPT focuses on improving relationships and communication, which can often contribute to depression. By addressing interpersonal challenges—like grief, conflict, or role transitions—IPT helps you rebuild connections and find emotional balance.
- Why it works: IPT targets the social and relational factors of depression, helping you feel more connected and supported.
- Best for: Those experiencing depression triggered by life changes, loss, or relationship issues.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT encourages you to accept difficult emotions while focusing on actions that align with your values. By practicing mindfulness and committing to meaningful goals, you can move forward despite depression’s challenges.
- Why it works: ACT helps you live a fulfilling life by embracing emotions and taking purposeful steps toward growth.
- Best for: Individuals seeking to find purpose and meaning while managing depression.
