Which therapeutic techniques are you using?
Our therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in a holistic and eclectic framework, drawing from a diverse range of therapeutic theories and techniques to best meet the unique needs of each individual client. Here's an overview of some of the therapeutic techniques we utilize:
1. Trauma Work: Our clinicians are trained in trauma-informed therapy techniques to help clients process and heal from past traumatic experiences.
2. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): DBT is a highly effective approach for individuals struggling with emotional dysregulation, helping them develop skills for mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
3. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT focuses on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and beliefs, promoting healthier cognitive and behavioral responses to life stressors.
4. Gottman Method: The Gottman Method is a research-based approach to couples therapy that emphasizes strengthening relationships through enhancing communication, fostering intimacy, and resolving conflicts.
5. Motivational Interviewing (MI): MI is a client-centered approach that helps individuals explore and resolve ambivalence about behavior change, empowering them to make positive changes in their lives.
6. Mindfulness: Mindfulness techniques are integrated into therapy to promote present-moment awareness, acceptance, and self-compassion, which can be beneficial for managing stress, anxiety, and depression.
7. Eclectic Approach: Our therapists are trained to tailor their therapeutic approach to the specific needs and preferences of each client, drawing from multiple therapeutic modalities as needed to provide comprehensive and personalized care.
By utilizing this holistic and eclectic approach, we aim to create a supportive and empowering therapeutic environment where clients can explore their challenges, cultivate resilience, and work towards their goals for personal growth and healing.

Do you offer free consultations?
​
At SMC Tampa, we deeply value both your time and the expertise of our clinicians. While we understand that some practices offer complimentary consultations, we have chosen a different approach—one that reflects our commitment to high-quality care and our respect for the time and training of our providers.
Our clinicians bring their full attention, presence, and skill to every session, beginning with the very first conversation. In honoring this, we do not expect them to work without compensation. However, we do offer 30-minute consultations at a low fee for those who would like an initial conversation before committing to ongoing work.
That said, we encourage clients to consider scheduling a full session, as it provides the time and space needed to genuinely explore your concerns and goals. In our experience, a brief 15-minute phone call often does not allow for the depth or nuance that meaningful therapeutic conversations deserve.
We invite you to explore our team bios and reach out with any questions—we’re here to help you find the best support for your needs.
Can’t find the answer to your question? Contact us today and we'll get back to you ASAP.
