At MindSeed we offer individual and couples therapy, groups, and tailored programs.
Individual Psychotherapy
Individual Psychotherapy is where you meet with your selected therapist and collaboratively work towards your identified goals. Typically, you’d start with weekly sessions, but you and your therapist will discuss what makes the most sense for you. Frequency of sessions can change based on where you find yourself on our 3-stage trauma model of care.
Your therapist will use a combination of these approaches to help you.
Couples Therapy
Navigating the complexities of a relationship can be a challenging journey, especially when past traumas come into play.
Our trauma-informed couples therapy provides a nurturing environment for understanding, growth, and healing. Whether you're looking to deepen your bond, resolve conflicts, or simply gain insights into the patterns that shape your relationship, our team is here to support you every step of the way. Join us in exploring paths to deeper connections and wellbeing.

In our DBT Skills Group, you’ll learn concrete and practical skills to manage intense emotions, tolerate distress, improve communication, relationships, and develop greater self-awareness.

CPT is a structured, evidence-based approach for treating PTSD and Complex PTSD. This 12-week group is designed to help you process and understand the ways trauma has impacted your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs—so you can begin to reduce emotional distress, feel more grounded, and reclaim your sense of self.
Through weekly 2-hour sessions, facilitated by two experienced therapists, you’ll learn to identify, process and challenge unhelpful patterns, shift trauma-related beliefs, and reduce your post traumatic stress symptoms.
This group may be helpful for individuals who have experienced:
Traumatic events in adulthood or childhood
Ongoing or repeated trauma (such as interpersonal violence, abuse, or neglect)
Persistent symptoms of PTSD or C-PTSD, such as hypervigilance, avoidance, or emotional numbing
