Therapy & Counseling Services
Our Jupiter Therapists & Counselors offer the most advanced therapy in our Jupiter counseling office.
IFS therapy is an evidence-based psychotherapy, proven to be transformational for many of life’s inner and relational challenges. IFS therapy helps people explore and accept the different parts of themselves. Once deeper understanding of the internal system occurs, the healing process of unburdening the difficult emotions, thoughts and beliefs can happen, allowing new qualities, such as confidence, peace, or wisdom to take root. This leads to a diminishing of difficult emotions, behaviors, or old beliefs, making space for personal growth and transformation. Learn more about IFS.
EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing is a therapeutic modality that promotes healing from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences.
Research studies have shown that EMDR offers people great benefits much faster than traditional talk therapies. This modality uses bilateral stimulation while processing difficult events, emotions and beliefs, allowing the mind and body to heal and restore to an improved state of well-being. Many of our Jupiter Therapists are trained in EMDR. Learn more about EMDR.
Mindfulness-based interventions are designed to focus a person’s attention on the present experience in a way that is non-judgmental.
Mindfulness practices help people better control their thoughts and emotions, rather than be controlled by them. Mindfulness is often incorporated into other therapeutic modalities as part of an integrated approach to treatment. These widely popular techniques are also employed in schools, businesses, and the military to reduce stress, anxiety, depression and improve focus, clarity, productivity and life-satisfaction, and much more. Learn more about Mindfulness.
CBT or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a talk therapy that can help manage your problems and emotions by changing the way you think and behave. It’s most commonly used to treat anxiety and depression, but can be useful for numerous other life issues. CBT is based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap you in a vicious cycle of unhappiness.
Our Jupiter Counselors will show you how to change these negative patterns to improve the way you feel, think, and experience life. CBT deals with your current problems, rather than focusing on issues from your past, by focusing on practical ways to improve your state of mind on a daily basis. Learn more about CBT.
Self expression through color, or movement, or writing is a unique way to identify emotions and explore them further, bringing new insights and clarity. This hand-on, experiential form of therapy is effective for both children and adults, alike.
Good couples counseling along with couple participation will encourage a healthier and more loving dynamic between you and your partner. Our Jupiter Couples Therapists weave together concepts from attachment and Imago theories, Emotionally-Focused-Therapy, the research of John Gottman and the latest in neuroscience.
Common areas: Communication, Conflict Resolution, Intimacy Issues, Infidelity, Resentment, Reconnection, Self-Esteem/Personal Growth. The goal is to connect you as you were at the beginning or perhaps even better than you’ve never been before!

This Month's Focus
Marriage Counseling
Here are the top six ingredients to a long and healthy relationship from a marriage therapist.
Fortunately, these are the things you could learn with marriage therapy:
1. Strong Communication: Open and empathetic communication is essential. Making time to talk, listen, and understand each other’s perspectives and needs is one of the most important factors for a strong marriage.
2. Mutual Respect: Respecting your partner’s opinions and values, even if they are different from yours. Listening when you disagree is difficult, but it will foster a trusting and connected marriage.
3. Emotional Support: Offering encouragement and support through both the wins and the struggles in your marriage, strengthens your bond, resulting in a more positive marriage.
4. Commitment to Growth: Both partners should be committed to personal and relational growth, this applies to both inside and outside the marriage. As life changes, it’s easy to grow apart, so be intentional about growing together.
5. Healthy Conflict Resolution: Conflict is inevitable in marriage, how you resolve the conflict matters. Instead of stewing in blame and anger, approach disagreements with a problem-solving mindset.
6. Consistent Affection and Appreciation: Small gestures of kindness, affection, and gratitude will let your spouse know they are valued, keeping the marriage strong and fulfilling.
These important ingredients help to create a solid foundation for a relationship that thrives long term through life’s ups and downs. If you are lacking these ingredients in your marriage, now is the time to get you marriage back on track with solid marriage counseling.
