Relational. I focus on building a strong relationship with you so we have a sturdy foundation to do this important work. Attachment-based. Therapy will support you in building more secure attachment bonds in your relationships. Attachment theory focuses on both parent-child bonds, as well as romantic and other relationships. Third wave CBT, specifically utilizing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). ACT helps you become more present to yourself, connected with your values, and able to face life in the face of unpleasant emotions. My therapy also integrates tools from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT). Couples therapy and family therapy focuses on the process by which partners learn to express their deep inner experiences and truly listen to their partner so they can better-manage conflict and rebuild connection. Interpersonal behavioral therapy. We focus on the process by which you relate to others, and what you do (or how you behave) in relationships. Behaviorally-based. I ask my clients to try new ways of being both inside and outside of sessions. Experientially-based. Together, we will look into the dynamics that arise in the room. This means we may slow down and explore the process of what emotions, thoughts, somatic (bodily) experiences, and patterns of behavior are coming up in the session. This may also mean we focus on what it feels like for you and me to be in connection together. We will use the relationship between us as a place to build understanding of the dynamics of how you relate, as well as to experiment with new ways of relating. https://www.drbrierobertori.com/about daily 0.75 2023-04-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce435d6bea1ed00016ba287/1558964652247-5MWXNMFZVOPGE4TY6U2Q/MHeiderich_ReflexionenZwei-05-copy.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/da952991-f593-41e4-9c01-574a7dc47b3d/IMG_4181-Edit.jpg About - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.drbrierobertori.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-03-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce435d6bea1ed00016ba287/1558964652247-5MWXNMFZVOPGE4TY6U2Q/MHeiderich_ReflexionenZwei-05-copy.jpg Contact https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/a2b65e64-ac70-475b-bbc0-d1b16de6b550/IMG_4054-Edit.jpg Contact https://www.drbrierobertori.com/adults daily 0.75 2022-02-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/cfc3562e-474e-4f1d-a722-c266549e62c5/maarten-van-den-heuvel-s9XMNEm-M9c-unsplash+%281%29.jpg Adults - Adult Individual Therapy I have worked with anxiety, depression, divorce, relationship difficulties, codependence, immigration trauma, marginalized identity because of ethnicity/class/sexual orientation/other oppression, and trauma. I also work with those whose past pain is hindering them from living more fully in their lives. As an attentive and caring person, I will support you in feeling heard, accepted, and cared-for. Through our collaborative work, I will help you feel hard emotions and learn more about who you are. Together, I will also supportively explore unhelpful patterns that get in the way of living the life you want. Not only will we get a sense of what the “barriers” are, but we’ll also experiment with trying new ways of doing, relating, and being. Therapy with me is experiential: by slowing down and getting curious about what’s happening in the present moment, you can cultivate new ways of responding. https://www.drbrierobertori.com/teens daily 0.75 2022-03-02 https://www.drbrierobertori.com/families daily 0.75 2026-03-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/bfa37988-fdba-486f-a546-b64161bf320a/vivek-kumar-a-_1PPjnbUg-unsplash.jpg Family Therapy - Family Therapy Perhaps you are experiencing transitions in your family like divorce or loss. Or maybe your child is having trouble regulating emotions and it’s putting strain on your family. Or your family might need just a little support to strengthen relationships and create healthier patterns. Family therapy can help. I have helped families improve the parent-child bond, helped caregivers resolve parenting-related conflicts, and supported families in improving family dynamics. I have also worked with divorce, marital conflict’s impacts on children, co-parenting, and supporting families when a child has an illness, mental health concern, or disability. I specialize in supporting families in which one or more family member has ADHD and/or other learning disabilities. Family therapy with me is a nonjudgmental and exploratory space. We focus on leveraging strengths within each person and within the family to heal and deepen relationships. Working within attachment theory, therapy with me focuses on strengthening the bonds between family members. Family therapy with me is a supportive space where difficult conversations can happen safely so that we can get to the root of the issue. Together, we can safely process anger, resentment, and pain so that you and your family members can turn toward each other with curiosity and warmth. In our work, I also support family members in understanding and taking ownership of their impact on other family members. Together, we can slow down, build compassion for each other, and connect with our values as a compass while navigating challenges in relationships. I also make sure everyone has a voice and feels heard — both by me and by each other! https://www.drbrierobertori.com/couples daily 0.75 2026-03-06 https://www.drbrierobertori.com/children daily 0.75 2026-03-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/a1778217-ec5d-45e1-99c7-5ed276b28b41/luemen-rutkowski-ZWbBxZ6zTwM-unsplash.jpg Children - Why Family Therapy? Family therapy is especially important for younger children (~5 or under). This form of therapy is flexible and responsive to the family’s needs. I usually do not recommend only child therapy for children this young. The therapy would consist of sessions with only caregivers and/or sessions where both children and caregivers are present. We will work collaboratively to determine the shape and frequency of treatment that would best serve your child and family. https://www.drbrierobertori.com/services-3 daily 1.0 2023-04-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/1643864545178-4M0JP337YUTHFYRLV457/teenagers+smiling.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/1643865233320-4VUHMMPGOC4K4ZRDSBK4/kid+smiling+being+swung.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/1643865949864-G4S7U9NH9WYUE2RL57DX/cute+poc+couple.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/1643866232712-HR6HD4JO2PSMXAAYBL5P/fam+therapy.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/1643866455339-32LPXFZR39CUVTI57YBY/jubilant+adult.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e9fe491a57f23b45de92c2/a0c92d99-bf7f-42a9-ba24-50969f3898f6/2022-02-06+14.33.14.jpg Services - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
