Therapeutic Approaches

Evidence-Based Talk Therapy

Your therapist draws on a range of proven, evidence-based approaches — tailoring each session to your unique needs, history, and goals.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Identify and reshape the thought patterns and behaviours that drive anxiety, depression, and distress — one of the most well-researched therapeutic modalities available.

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Build psychological flexibility by accepting difficult thoughts and feelings, clarifying your values, and committing to meaningful action in your life.

Interpersonal Psychotherapy

Address relationship patterns, communication difficulties, and life transitions that contribute to emotional distress and mental health challenges.

Motivational Interviewing

A collaborative, goal-oriented approach that strengthens your own motivation and commitment to change — meeting you exactly where you are.

Mindfulness-Based Approaches

Develop present-moment awareness and non-judgmental observation of your thoughts and feelings to reduce stress, anxiety, and emotional reactivity.

Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)

A transformational therapy focused on healing attachment wounds and processing difficult emotions at a deeper experiential level.

Emotion-Focused Therapy

Help you become more aware of, accept, and make sense of your emotions — transforming stuck emotional states into sources of information and growth.

Solution-Focused Therapy

A forward-looking, strengths-based approach that helps you identify your own resources and build on what is already working in your life.

Skill-Building Approaches

Practical tools and techniques for managing emotions, improving relationships, and navigating life’s challenges with greater confidence and resilience.

Psychotherapy + Neurofeedback

A More Complete Path to Healing

For clients dealing with anxiety, trauma, ADHD, or sleep issues, combining psychotherapy with Neurofeedback + Vielight can accelerate and deepen results. Talk therapy addresses patterns of thought and behaviour; neurofeedback works directly on the nervous system — together, they support change at every level.

Covered under extended health benefits. Psychotherapy services at The Durand Clinic are eligible for reimbursement under most extended health benefit plans. Check with your provider for your specific coverage.
